ClickHouse, Inc., the company behind one of the world’s fastest real-time analytical databases, has announced the launch of a high-performance, enterprise-grade Postgres service that is natively integrated with ClickHouse. With this move, the company aims to deliver a unified data stack designed specifically for developers building modern, real-time, and AI-driven applications. By combining transactional and analytical capabilities on a single foundation, ClickHouse is addressing one of the most persistent challenges in data infrastructure today.

Notably, this new Postgres service has been developed in partnership with Ubicloud, Inc., an open-source cloud company known for delivering high-performance Postgres solutions. Ubicloud is led by a seasoned team with deep expertise from organizations such as Citus Data, Heroku, and Microsoft. As a result, the collaboration strengthens ClickHouse’s broader vision of simplifying how enterprises manage both transactional and analytical workloads at scale.

Furthermore, this launch builds directly on ClickHouse’s acquisition of PeerDB Inc. in 2024. PeerDB, a Postgres-focused company, brought with it technology that enables real-time data synchronization from Postgres to ClickHouse. Today, that technology supports hundreds of enterprise customers, clearly validating the strong technical and practical synergy between Postgres and ClickHouse. Consequently, this new service represents a natural evolution of that integration.

A unified data stack for transactions and analytics

As AI-powered and real-time applications continue to grow in complexity, organizations increasingly require both transactional (OLTP) and analytical (OLAP) capabilities to work seamlessly together. To meet this need, ClickHouse is delivering a tightly integrated data stack that combines Postgres for transactions with ClickHouse for analytics. Developers now gain access to a high-performance Postgres service backed by NVMe storage, while also being able to synchronize transactional data into ClickHouse with just a few clicks. This approach unlocks analytics performance improvements of up to 100x.

In addition, the unified query layer removes the operational burden of managing separate systems. Teams can build applications that span transactions and analytics without dealing with fragmented architectures or complex data pipelines. As a result, developers can focus more on innovation and less on infrastructure maintenance.

“Postgres and ClickHouse have become foundational technologies for modern AI applications,” said Aaron Katz, CEO of ClickHouse. “With our native Postgres service, we’re unifying transactional and analytical workloads, so developers can build any type of application powered by AI on the best technical foundation. We’re excited to partner with Ubicloud and their world-class Postgres team to bring this offering to life.”

Echoing this sentiment, Ubicloud highlighted the importance of collaboration within the open-source ecosystem. “Postgres and ClickHouse complement each other naturally and are key for AI applications. Together, we’re delivering an integrated stack that removes complexity for teams, with production-grade Postgres for transactions and ClickHouse for analytics working as one,” said Umur Cubukcu, Co-CEO, Co-Founder, Ubicloud. “We’re excited to join forces with ClickHouse at Ubicloud because this is how the open-source ecosystem wins: trusted teams building best-in-class products that work and grow together.”

Trusted by leading AI-driven companies

Already, thousands of organizations including GitLab, Instacart, Cloudflare, and Ramp depend on Postgres for transactional workloads and ClickHouse for analytics to power mission-critical, real-time applications. With this latest launch, the two technologies move closer than ever, signaling a major step toward a truly unified foundation for AI application development.

Industry leaders have also welcomed the announcement. Noah Pryor, the CTO of Beehiv, a major ClickHouse customer, shared his perspective: “We’re excited to see ClickHouse entering the Postgres ecosystem. At Beehiv, we rely heavily on both Postgres and ClickHouse to power our mission-critical, customer-facing applications. We’ve invested significant effort in integrating these technologies, so a tighter, more native integration between them would materially simplify our architecture.”

Overall, this launch underscores ClickHouse’s commitment to delivering scalable, developer-friendly infrastructure that aligns with the future of real-time and AI-driven applications.
