A MotherDuck Case Study
UDisc, the leading disc golf mobile app, faced a significant challenge in providing analytics from its growing dataset. As the sport's popularity surged, their transactional MongoDB database struggled with complex, ad hoc queries. This made creating data dashboards for local ambassadors nearly impossible and their process for generating annual reports was slow and cumbersome, hindering their mission to share data on the sport's growth.
By implementing MotherDuck, UDisc found a simple and cost-effective analytics solution. The vendor's platform, based on DuckDB, dramatically accelerated query times, reducing a typical query from minutes to just seconds and slashing a 6-hour dbt job down to 30 minutes. This performance unlock allowed UDisc to instantly power customer-facing dashboards with lifetime course history and provide internal annual reports in seconds, empowering both their team and local ambassadors with valuable, self-serve analytics.
