Unless you’re at huge volume you can totally do this in a Postgres table. Even if you are you can partition that table by date (or whatever other attributes make sense) so that you don’t have to deal with massive indexes.

I once did this, and we didn’t need to even think about partitioning until we hit a billion rows or so. (But partition sooner than that, it wasn’t a pleasant experience)
