Case Study: Energetech powers real-time commodity trading with QuestDB

Energetech and QuestDB partner for efficient market data management

Energetech, a commodity trading company, uses QuestDB to support real-time energy market strategies. Their challenge was handling large volumes of market data and forecasts from multiple venues and external providers while dealing with price spikes, deduplication needs, and out-of-order data without slowing performance.

With QuestDB, Energetech built a high-performance time-series architecture for ingesting, deduplicating, and querying market data instantly. The result was peak ingestion of over 10 million messages per minute, about 140 GB ingested per day, peak throughput of 44 MB/s, and only around 1% weekly database growth, helping reduce infrastructure and maintenance costs while improving query efficiency.
