Case Study: Bonito Tech improves real-time GPS data performance with TimescaleDB

Bonito Tech manages GPS data from 50,000 vehicles with Timescale

Bonito Tech, a Philippines-based development company, faced significant challenges managing the massive volume of real-time GPS data generated by their public transportation tracking app, Sakai. Their initial PostgreSQL database caused performance bottlenecks and service interruptions during data archiving and querying, hindering their ability to scale. They needed a robust solution to handle billions of data points efficiently and turned to Timescale for its TimescaleDB database.

By implementing TimescaleDB, Bonito Tech unlocked automatic data retention policies and time-series capabilities tailored for their vehicle trajectory data. The solution from Timescale delivered enhanced query performance, seamless data management, and simplified scaling. This eliminated manual intervention in archiving and streamlined integration with their Google Cloud infrastructure, allowing the team to focus on refining analytics and improving public transportation efficiency.
