In this session, Alexey will take a deep dive into how large language models are trained, fine-tuned, and served, with a focus on the data pipelines and architectures that make it all work. You’ll see live demos of ClickHouse tackling massive AI-scale datasets in real time, along with performance benchmarks that reveal just how far you can push the engine.

In this session, Adhitya will walk through how Markethac migrated its analytics stack from BigQuery to ClickHouse to meet the real-time demands of Indonesian e-commerce intelligence at scale. You'll get a behind-the-scenes look at the architecture decisions, ingestion pipeline design, and optimizations that made the migration work — along with live demo showing the performance gap between the two engines on real marketplace data.
