AI tools<\/a>, companies covet real-time analytics software providers such as ClickHouse \u2060that help manage soaring data \u200cvolumes and performance needs.<\/p>\n“As companies bolt AI features onto everything, they need fast, cheap, real-time analytics for product \u200dtelemetry, observability, security, and data warehousing in cloud form,” said Michael Ashley Schulman, partner at Running Point Capital Advisors.<\/p>\n
Last month, Databricks, which helps firms manage large \u200bamounts of data and build their own AI models, raised more \u200cthan $4 billion at a valuation of $134 billion, highlighting the sector’s momentum.<\/p>\n
ClickHouse’s technology enables “fast and cheap responses to queries,” helping companies run and build AI tools, and competes with players such as Databricks and Snowflake, Schulman said.<\/p>\n
“A $15 billion (valuation) implies that the venture round is underwriting a very sharp \u2060ramp in ARR, margins and durable retention.”<\/p>\n
ClickHouse \u200bon Friday also announced the acquisition of \u200bLangfuse, an open-source platform that helps create, test and monitor large language models.<\/p>\n
LLMs are artificial intelligence systems trained on \u200dmassive amounts of data \u2060to generate human-like language.<\/p>\n
Founded in 2009, ClickHouse, whose customers include Meta, Cursor, Sony and Tesla, develops open-source database software for real-time \u2060analytics.<\/p>\n
Its cloud service helps companies quickly analyze large amounts of data for products, monitoring \u200csystems and AI-driven applications.<\/p>\n
