How Silverflow simplified its data platform and cut end-to-end latency by 95% with ClickHouse Cloud
Blog post from ClickHouse
Silverflow has revolutionized its data analytics by implementing ClickHouse Cloud, significantly reducing latency and streamlining its data infrastructure to support near-real-time insights on global payment events. This transition has allowed Silverflow to cut end-to-end latency for data insights from 20 minutes to just 65 seconds and replace numerous ETL pipelines with ClickHouse’s dynamic JSON ingestion and ClickPipes, which has reduced engineering costs and complexity. Founded to modernize card-processing infrastructure with a unified API for direct network connections, Silverflow has expanded globally since its 2019 launch, necessitating robust data solutions to handle increased volume and complexity. By integrating ClickHouse Cloud, Silverflow has simplified its data ingestion into a single table with materialized views, enhancing performance and enabling timely data access for real-time dashboards and decision-making. As the company continues to grow, it plans to further integrate ClickHouse, decommission legacy ETL pipelines, and explore new capabilities like regional deployments to meet data residency requirements, positioning itself for continued agility and competitive advantage in the fast-paced payments industry.
