Peak performance time-series

Hyper ingestion

For massive volumes of time-series data, trust a specialized time-series database. Timestamps are first-class, and blistering throughput is sustained even through the highest data cardinality. Deduplication and out-of-order ingestion also work right out-of-the-box.

Using QuestDB, we deliver time series datasets with real-time market data from a top 10 blockchain. This outperforms a legacy cloud-based data platform at a fraction of the cost, reducing TCO by >90%.

Switching to QuestDB was a game-changer for our analytics. With Elasticsearch, we faced slow ingestion and latency issues for queries. With QuestDB, we now process billions of records per day smoothly.
