Case Study: Fever held partner reporting under 50ms p99 latency at peak load with Tinybird

Key results

The challenge

Fever, a live-entertainment discovery platform, ran real-time partner sales reporting that degraded under load - latency ballooned from 3-4 seconds to over 2 minutes during peak sales. Schema changes in production were fragile and risked breaking pipelines.

The solution

Fever rebuilt its partner reporting on Tinybird, adopting managed ingestion, automatic quarantine of bad records, and PR-based schema changes with CI validation.

The results, in context

Fever held p99 latency under 50ms even under peak load, ending the degradation that previously pushed latency from 3-4 seconds to over 2 minutes. It processes 300TB per month across 1.5M requests per month, with partners seeing fresh data exactly when it matters during peak sales.
