A universal interface: How QuintoAndar made ClickHouse plug-and-play with managed Postgres
QuintoAndar consolidated its customer data platform on ClickHouse Cloud and used ClickHouse Managed Postgres to let Hightouch and other Postgres-compatible tools query that data.
This shows a pattern of using managed Postgres as a compatibility layer to bridge ClickHouse to the Postgres ecosystem, avoiding the need to maintain separate pipelines. It also demonstrates how to integrate ClickHouse with tools that don't natively support it, reducing operational overhead.

QuintoAndar unified ~900 million monthly events in ClickHouse Cloud, serving 300 million API requests.
The team replaced a two-pipeline Lambda architecture with a single ClickHouse pipeline, eliminating duplicate events and MERGE INTO operations.
ClickHouse Managed Postgres bridges the gap for Hightouch, making ClickHouse reachable from any Postgres-compatible tool.
