Power Real-Time Risk Management, Fraud Detection, and Regulatory Compliance

TeraDB Cloud enables banks, fintechs, and asset managers to process trillions of transactions in real time, detect fraud with sub-second latency, and meet stringent regulatory requirements—all on a cost-effective, open-source stack.

Key Challenges in Financial Data Analytics

zap fast

Real-Time Fraud Detection

Identifying fraudulent transactions before they clear.

Database

Regulatory Compliance

Generating audit trails for GDPR, SOX, and MiFID II without performance penalties.

Data sources

High-Frequency Trading (HFT)

Analyzing market data feeds with microsecond latency.

Real Time

Risk Modeling

Calculating VaR (Value-at-Risk) and stress tests on petabytes of historical data.

Compliance & Security

Data Silos

Unifying structured (SQL) and unstructured (SWIFT messages, PDFs) data for holistic insights.

Unstructured

Unstructured and Uncompressed Data

Different Data Sources provide data in unstructured or Uncompressed form.

Technical Use Cases for Financial Analytics

Real-Time Executive

Real-Time Fraud Detection

Challenge

Flagging fraudulent transactions (e.g., card-not-present, account takeover) in <500ms.

Solution

  • Icon

    Ingest payment streams (Kafka/NATS) into ClickHouse with schemaless JSON ingestion.

  • Icon

    Score transactions in real time using Python UDFs (e.g., velocity checks, geolocation mismatches).

  • Icon

    Cross-reference historical fraud patterns with RediSearch’s vector similarity search.

  • Icon

    Block high-risk transactions via ElasticSearch alerting integrated with fraud engines.

Ad-Hoc Analysis

Regulatory Reporting & Audit Trails

Challenge

Generating SEC/FINRA-compliant reports on 10TB+ of transaction data.

Solution

  • Icon

    Store raw trade data in ClickHouse’s MergeTree tables with TTL-based partitioning for GDPR retention.

  • Icon

    Encrypt sensitive PII using BYOK (AWS KMS/GCP Cloud HSM).

  • Icon

    Automate MiFID II transaction reports with prebuilt Grafana templates and Airflow pipelines.

Forecasting

High-Frequency Trading Analytics

Challenge

Processing 1M+ market ticks/sec with <1ms latency for arbitrage strategies.

Solution

  • Icon

    Deploy ClickHouse on NVMe-powered instances (AWS i3en/GCP C3) for ultra-low-latency order book analysis.

  • Icon

    Cache hot data (e.g., NASDAQ symbols) in RediSearch for 50μs lookups.

  • Icon

    Use ElasticSearch’s anomaly detection to flag abnormal trading volumes.

Real-Time Executive

Portfolio Risk Management

Challenge

Calculating real-time VaR across 10,000+ asset portfolios.

Solution

  • Icon

    Train Monte Carlo simulations (PyTorch) on historical market data stored in ClickHouse.

  • Icon

    Deploy models as ClickHouse ML UDFs for on-the-fly risk scoring.

  • Icon

    Visualize exposures with Grafana dashboards and alert on threshold breaches.

Ad-Hoc Analysis

Unstructured Data Analysis

Challenge

Extracting insights from SWIFT messages, emails, and PDF contracts.

Solution

  • Icon

    Use ElasticSearch’s NLP plugins to parse unstructured text for sentiment/entity extraction.

  • Icon

    Index parsed data in ClickHouse for SQL-based correlation with structured transactions.

  • Icon

    Enforce RBAC to restrict access to sensitive documents.

How TeraDB Cloud Solves Financial Analytics Challenges

Blazing-Fast

Sub-Second Fraud Detection:

  • Icon

    ClickHouse’s window functions compute real-time velocity checks (e.g., 5 transactions/min per card).

  • Icon

    RediSearch caches IP blacklists and known fraudster profiles for instant lookups.

Advanced Detection

Compliance & Security:

  • Icon

    SOC 2 & PCI-DSS Compliance: Audited infrastructure with VPC peering and private subnet isolation.

  • Icon

    Immutable Audit Logs: Store logs in ClickHouse with cryptographic hashing for tamper-proofing.

Cost-Effective Scaling

  • Icon

    Auto-Scale ClickHouse Clusters: Burst to 1000+ cores during EOD reporting, scale down post-processing.

  • Icon

    Cold Storage: Archive raw data to S3/Glacier at 1/10th the cost of traditional warehouses.

Compliance & Security

Unified Data Platform

  • Icon

    Prebuilt Connectors: FIX Protocol, SWIFT, Bloomberg, and SAP.
