Infinite Scale in Obics

Obics can support pretty much any scale because it uses a distributed ClickHouse database. As you need more data, whether it's terabytes or petabytes, ClickHouse will scale horizontally, adding more machines to the cluster. The data itself is stored in Amazon S3 with hot cache on SSD drives. This combination proves to be both cost effective and efficient.

ClickHouse itself is designed to handle large-scale by distributing data across multiple nodes using sharding and ensuring high availability with replication. Real-world implementations demonstrate ClickHouse's scalability. For instance, Cloudflare utilizes a ClickHouse cluster with 36 nodes and triple replication to handle real-time analytics for millions of DNS queries per second. Azur Games migrated a 120-terabyte database to ClickHouse Cloud, enhancing system simplicity, speed, and reliability. Jerry moved from RedShift to ClickHouse to improve report loading times from tens of minutes to seconds, achieving more efficient data processing and significant cost reductions.
