ClickHouse launches House Mates partner programme in ANZ

ClickHouse has launched its House Mates partner programme in Australia and New Zealand, marking its first formal partner community and programme.

The launch is part of a broader global rollout that begins with more than 25 technology partners and more than 35 services, consulting and channel partners across six continents. Named participants include dbt Labs, Fivetran, Sigma, Notion, Temporal, Tiger Analytics, DoIT, Ciklum and MegazoneCloud.

House Mates is structured around three tracks: technology, services and resellers. Each track has three tiers: Ignite, Accelerate and Prime.

Benefits vary by tier and include joint go-to-market activity, integration support, enablement, certifications, incentives and access to a partner portal. The programme is intended to expand ClickHouse's ecosystem beyond its established relationships with AWS, Microsoft and Google Cloud.

The broader ecosystem is expected to give customers access to pre-built integrations, implementation support and routes to market for the ClickHouse Cloud platform, including Langfuse.

Regional push

Australia and New Zealand are part of the initial regional expansion as ClickHouse seeks to strengthen local channel coverage and implementation support. The company, which focuses on real-time analytics and observability, is looking to add partners with expertise in artificial intelligence and open-source software.

Abhinav Mehla, Vice President - Global Partners and Alliances at ClickHouse, said: "We're excited to partner with AI and open-source specialists who bring deep implementation expertise and extend our reach across Australia and New Zealand. By adding ClickHouse to their portfolios, our House Mates partners can deliver faster time to value in real-time analytics and agentic AI for their customers, while accessing attractive incentives to grow their own business. We look forward to a collaborative go-to-market approach with our channel partners to meet the surging demand for ClickHouse across Australia and New Zealand."

Partner backing

Several partners and users pointed to ClickHouse's role in handling large data volumes and supporting analytics workloads. Their comments reflect the company's effort to position the programme around practical deployment work as well as software integrations.

Hung Dihn, Technical Director at Furō, said: "As DevSecOps and observability experts, Furō is built on the pursuit of speed and visibility. We are just beginning our official journey as a ClickHouse House Mates partner, and we're already seeing how its lightning-fast engine redefines what's possible for our clients. By integrating ClickHouse into our core toolkit, we're turning massive telemetry into real-time, cost-effective insights, transforming observability from an operational headache into a true competitive advantage."

Modal described how it is using ClickHouse in production systems, with Hex as an analytics layer over that data.

Kenny Ning, Head of Data at Modal, said: "ClickHouse powers some of our most demanding workloads, ingesting over a million events per minute across hundreds of billions of logs to fuel the real-time dashboards our customers depend on. Hex's native ClickHouse connector gives us a seamless analytics layer on top of that data, enabling every team at Modal to explore and act on insights without having to ETL a large amount of data into a separate warehouse."

"It is exciting to see the ClickHouse and Hex partnership getting deeper because, for teams like ours that run on both real-time and analytical data, a tighter integration between the two means fewer trade-offs and faster answers for everyone in the organisation," added Ning.

Analytics demand

Sigma also linked its participation to customer demand for ClickHouse deployments.

Mike Palmer, Chief Executive Officer of Sigma, said: "ClickHouse is one of the fastest-growing databases in the market, and our customers are building on it because it delivers disruptive cost-performance. Entering the House Mates partner programme is our commitment to delivering the best runtime layer on top of ClickHouse."

Tiger Analytics said the arrangement aligns with its work in data science, AI engineering and data engineering.

Rajeev Nayar, Vice President of Data Engineering at Tiger Analytics, said: "ClickHouse's real-time analytics combined with Tiger Analytics' expertise in data science, AI engineering, and data engineering gives customers a strong foundation to modernise their data platforms. Together, we aim to help organisations accelerate innovation and derive greater value from their data investments."

ClickHouse describes itself as an open-source columnar database built for real-time data processing and analytics. Its customer list includes Sony, Tesla, Anthropic, Memorial Sloan Kettering, Lyft and Instacart.
