Case Study: Uniqode achieves 10x faster QR code analytics with Apache Pinot and StarTree

Uniqode 10x Faster Queries with Apache Pinot and StarTree over Elasticsearch

Uniqode, a provider of dynamic QR code analytics for more than 30,000 customers, needed a faster and more reliable way to power user-facing dashboards. Its Elasticsearch-based setup was struggling with high p95 latencies, frequent errors, and low QPS, which caused slow-loading analytics and hurt the user experience.

Uniqode switched to StarTree Cloud, powered by Apache Pinot, to handle real-time analytics. With StarTree, the company achieved more than 20x faster p95 latency, 10x overall query performance gains, zero errors, and a 50% reduction in cluster nodes, along with major cuts in core and memory usage.
