“The bigger risk I face isn’t that you’re going to fail and we’re going to get rid of you. It’s that you get tired and you fall out of love.” - @peterfenton Introducing Real Time, a new podcast from ClickHouse. In our first episode, Aaron Katz (@ceo_clickhouse) sits down with Benchmark's Peter Fenton on backing founders, building open-source businesses, and the AI supercycle. A few highlights: - You can't fake open-source adoption. But how do you turn it into a business? Peter on why ClickHouse's cloud aligned value creation with value capture. - On the scale of the AI opportunity: “In 10 years, we’ll look back and dream about being here.” His advice to founders: stay curious, take risks, and make failure cheap. - Benchmark's new playbook: four to six big, decade-long bets on generational founders. - Peter flew Aaron to Big Sur himself and landed the helicopter on the roof of a house. Aaron took an Uber home.

ClickHouse Managed Postgres is GA: up to 10× faster on local NVMe, sub-second CDC into ClickHouse via WalShadow, and hundreds of production customers, including @clay.

ClickHouse Observability is now in public beta, and getting started takes only three steps: 1. Create a service and get your OTLP endpoint and credentials. 2. Point your existing OpenTelemetry collectors at it. 3. Start searching logs, metrics, and traces and connect your agents via MCP. You keep your current instrumentation and pipelines. Just send the data, we’ll do the rest. Try the public beta: buff.ly/A32aZce Already on ClickHouse Cloud? Turn it on in your existing service: buff.ly/RTXty90
