ClickHouse at the NYC AI Agents Hackathon: Building Agentic AI on Real‑Time Data

At a recent AI Agents Hackathon hosted at Datadog's New York office, ClickHouse emerged as the sole database sponsor, becoming the preferred choice for data-intensive projects. The event drew around 135 participants, including software engineers, students, and indie hackers, all tasked with building autonomous AI agents using at least three sponsor technologies. ClickHouse-powered projects like VitalSignal, which provides personalized global disease alerts, and RedBot, a chatbot security tool, secured top honors for their innovative use of real-time data processing. Throughout the hackathon, ClickHouse demonstrated its capability to handle diverse data types and facilitate rapid query execution, proving to be a reliable backbone for agentic AI applications. The hackathon underscored the synergy between agentic AI and real-time analytics, highlighting how in-person mentorship and strategic use of sponsor technologies can drive successful project outcomes.
