A Influxdata Case Study
Haschek Solutions’ Web Enrichment Guard (WEGA) is a DNS-based web filtering solution that provides live analytics and blocks malware, phishing, and other unwanted content for schools and universities without requiring users to install software on their devices. Their challenge was ingesting and querying massive volumes of time-series DNS data fast enough—MySQL and other databases were too slow for real-time reporting and high request rates.
By adopting InfluxDB, WEGA moved DNS reporting to a UDP-based pipeline that logs every requested and blocked page, enabling high-throughput ingestion and lightning-fast queries. The result is a scalable, reliable backend that handles peak requests per second with ease and made building the live analytics dashboard simple and performant.
