ClickHouse Showcases Chartmetric Case Study Highlighting Performance Gains on ClickHouse Cloud

ClickHouse has shared an update.

The company highlighted a customer case study featuring Chartmetric, a data analytics platform for the music industry that ingests millions of rows of data daily from streaming services, social media, and music charts. As Chartmetric’s data volume expanded into the billions of rows in 2024, it migrated to ClickHouse Cloud to achieve faster query performance, lower storage costs, and real-time scalability. According to the post, Chartmetric realized a 10–15x speed improvement on key workloads, a 36% reduction in storage needs and 20x faster queries via projections, a 99% reduction in memory usage through optimized filters, and a playlist cache pipeline capable of ingesting over 15 million rows every five minutes.

For investors, this update underscores ClickHouse’s traction in high-throughput, analytics-intensive use cases and its ability to support real-time decision-making at scale. Demonstrated performance gains and infrastructure savings for a data-heavy customer like Chartmetric strengthen ClickHouse Cloud’s value proposition relative to competing analytics databases and cloud data platforms. While no financial metrics were disclosed, successful implementations in verticals such as media and entertainment may support customer acquisition, usage-based revenue growth, and improved competitive positioning in the cloud analytics and data infrastructure market.
