Why ClickHouse Should Be Your Next Database
ClickHouse powers the analytics behind some of the most demanding products on the internet and many of the world's most notable AI products.
Real Time Analytics
Stream events directly into ClickHouse and query the latest data with sub-second latency. Replace nightly batch pipelines and stale dashboards with live operational reporting.
User Facing Analytics
Embed analytics directly into your product. ClickHouse handles thousands of concurrent users querying billions of rows, returning results in milliseconds at a fraction of the cost of a traditional cloud data warehouse.
Agentic AI
Store the traces, embeddings and tool-call logs that AI agents generate at the scale they actually produce them. Run vector search, evaluate prompts and analyse agent behaviour on a single store with Langfuse.
Data Science
Run feature engineering and exploratory analysis directly on terabyte datasets in SQL — no sampling, no extracts. Pull results straight into Python with ClickHouse Connect or chDB.
Time Series and IoT
Ingest billions of timestamped events per day from sensors, devices and applications. Roll up to second, minute or hour windows at query time without pre-aggregation overhead.
Security Analytics
Centralise audit logs, network telemetry and endpoint data into one queryable store. Run threat hunting and SIEM workloads at a scale and price point legacy tools cannot match.
Migration
Move workloads off Postgres, Snowflake, BigQuery or Redshift with a structured, low-risk path to production. Most teams see queries run 10-100x faster at a fraction of the running cost.
Observability
Replace expensive observability vendors with ClickStack, the open platform built on ClickHouse. Store high-cardinality logs, metrics and traces at a fraction of the cost of legacy SaaS tools.
From Slow Delayed Dashboards to Real Time Interactive Analytics
ClickHouse is a differentiated real time database that helps you move from backwards looking dashboards towards real time analytics and product experiences.
Instant Insights
Query billions of rows in milliseconds.
Live Observability
Monitor system health and business metrics as they happen.
The Best Database for AI
The fastest database for agentic workflows and analytics.
A Complete Stack
Includes ClickStack for observability and Langfuse for LLM apps.
Multiple Referencable Case Studies Across Industries
I have worked with tens of happy and referenceable ClickHouse customers across some of the industry's most challenging use cases.
“We are very pleased to have had the opportunity to work with Benjamin. We were experiencing significant performance issues with ClickHouse that we were unable to resolve internally. Initially, we engaged another consulting firm, but their recommendation was to redesign our entire system—an approach that would have required several months to implement. After three weeks with no meaningful progress, we decided to discontinue that engagement. We then began working with Ben, who quickly took ownership of the issue. He started immediately after gaining access to our system, starting with a weekend. On his first pass, he was able to accurately identify the root cause of the problem. We implemented his recommendations, and they resolved our performance issues right away. We highly recommend Ben for any ClickHouse-related work.”
“We brought Benjamin in to help us diagnose and resolve performance issues in our ClickHouse implementation at Guestrix, where we process large volumes of restaurant data in real time. Within days, he helped us identify and fix several major inefficiencies, including excessive mutations, unnecessary deletes, and poorly optimised partitioning. Benjamin helped us to operationally improve query performance through better indexing and partition strategies, as well as rethink how our app interacts with the database. His insights on concurrency, batching, and system behaviour under load were invaluable. Throughout the engagement, Benjamin was fast, collaborative, flexible and sharp in his analysis. He helped us significantly reduce our database load, prevent duplicate data, and make the application noticeably more stable and responsive. Highly recommended.”
“Benjamin was excellent. We needed urgent help with our ClickHouse implementation and he was there for us even though it wasn’t planned. The issue we had was quite tricky, but he was patient, receptive, and really thorough. His advice helped us approach things the right way.”
“We asked Benjamin to guide us through some of the key architectural and design decisions for our new ClickHouse implementation within a very short timeframe. The sessions he led, along with the materials he shared, were exceptionally helpful and well structured, combining clear explanations with practical, hands-on demonstrations using highly relevant real-world examples. Benjamin’s guidance helped us quickly gain confidence in our approach and avoid several potential pitfalls. The advice we received ultimately saved us a significant amount of time, effort, and frustration, and proved extremely valuable in accelerating our implementation in the right direction.”
