For our next release, we plan to add:

- Compression policies on distributed hypertables
- Partially mutable compressed chunks to support INSERTs into a compressed hypertable.
- Downgrading between Timescale DB 2.x versions.
- High Availability: Adding nodes to a multinode cluster.

I believe that the next version is focusing on elasticity and specifically rebalancing load when adding new DNs, not high availability?

Draft PR, so WIP. But yes.

Acceptance Criteria

A data node can be added to the multi-node cluster
Data is written to the new data node after it is added
Old data/chunks are moved from existing nodes to the new nodes to free up space and immediately make use of the new capacity
(Optional) All the steps can be automated

Tasks

Ability to add a data node to a multi-node cluster
Ability to move chunks to the new data node to make use of it immediately. This need not mean a "balanced" cluster.
A way to find candidate chunks to move. For example, based on number of chunks on a node (move from the node with the most chunks), least disk space, and/or based on recent/old chunks.

While this functionality is useful for HA, and is part of the larger HA story, it is a bit misleading to label it High Availability for this release. I agree with @mfreed that we should label this "Elasticity".

**PostgreSQL 11 deprecation announcement**

Timescale is working hard on our next exciting features. To make that
possible, we require functionality that is unfortunately absent on
PostgreSQL 11. For this reason, we will continue supporting PostgreSQL
11 until mid-June 2021. Sooner to that time, we will announce the
specific version of TimescaleDB in which PostgreSQL 11 support will be removed.
