    Shipping Reliable AI Agents: Building with Langfuse and ClickHouse

    The hardest part of an AI product isn't shipping it, it's knowing it's good, and keeping it that way. Langfuse turns production behavior into improvement material: trace, evaluate, improve, ship. Now part of ClickHouse, it pairs a ClickHouse-native V4 with code-based evals and CI/CD quality gates.

    Customer Case Study: Buildkite and ClickHouse: The Story of a Trillion Tests

    Buildkite’s Test Engine helps engineering teams make builds faster and more reliable with real-time test analytics and intelligent test splitting. Used by customers including OpenAI, Cursor, Slack, and Airbnb, the platform has ingested over a trillion test results into ClickHouse Cloud.

    In this talk, we’ll explore the architecture behind that scale: ClickHouse Cloud on AWS operating alongside Rails, Flink, and PostgreSQL. We’ll trace how ClickHouse replaced workloads previously spread across PostgreSQL, Redis, DynamoDB, and Athena, and examine the design choices that made the transition practical. These include using ClickHouse’s JSON data type to split flexible key-value test tags into separate columns on disk, Materialized Views to accelerate important queries, and a soon-to-be-open-source Ruby ClickHouse query builder. Attendees will leave with practical ideas for introducing ClickHouse into an existing application stack and using test data to shorten build times.

    Unified Data Stack: Managed Postgres by ClickHouse

    Customer Case Study: Neara & ClickStack — An Observability Journey

    Neara builds physics-based digital twins that tell utilities which poles fail in a storm and which trees threaten the line. Ironically, we couldn't see inside our own platform: five tools, zero distributed tracing, and model builds that burst to a thousand machines. This is how we rebuilt it on ClickHouse and ClickStack — schema, collector, and all.
