The challenge

Lansweeper is evolving from an IT inventory tool into an insights platform where customers expect all data to be instantly queryable. Its Elasticsearch- and OpenSearch-based analytics pipeline consumed a large share of cloud spend as data scaled.

The solution

Lansweeper moved to ClickHouse OSS and then ClickHouse Cloud, replacing SSD-based storage with S3-based storage.
