Case Study: Airtel XStream Play achieves real-time analytics at massive scale with QuestDB

Airtel XStream Play processes 1 billion records a day with QuestDB

Airtel XStream Play, a major media streaming service with over 100 million users, needed a time-series database capable of handling its massive scale for user engagement analytics. Their previous solution failed to aggregate data and suffered from high latency as ingestion grew to over a billion records daily, preventing them from effectively tracking metrics like watch time and device capabilities. This led them to evaluate QuestDB.

By implementing QuestDB, the team gained a high-throughput database that reliably ingests billions of records daily with predictable latency. QuestDB's performance enabled fast, flexible dashboards for critical capacity planning and content insights. The solution significantly reduced infrastructure costs and provided a scalable foundation for future growth. According to the customer, processing billions of records daily became "a breeze" after switching to QuestDB.
