I think CrateDB did great in our use case, as it was a great solution for storing and retrieving data quickly. At the end of the day, there is a lot of parsing and steps along the way, and CrateDB was fast enough for our needs. At my previous company, they still use it up to today, and I think they are pretty happy with how it works and the kind of performance it provides. I would advise others looking into using CrateDB to have some technical experience in the background before starting to use it to avoid running into issues during setup. I do not have specific statistics on time saved, but for customer growth, I know we achieved an increase of thirty percent in our current customer volume once we switched to CrateDB. My company was just a customer of CrateDB and there were no other kinds of partnerships with them. CrateDB is deployed in various ways depending on the project and customer needs. In most cases, it is in AWS, which is a public cloud. In other cases, it is on-premises, installed on the servers of a company or even on my own company's servers. I would rate this review an eight overall.
