You can also use this tool to amplify the data volume for tests. For example, based on a dataset of 100 million records from ClickBench, I created a dataset of 100 billion records. Here is a description of how to generate this dataset: htt

ClickHouse has Geo data types and functions (such as import and export from WKT, GeoJSON) and special features to accelerate geospatial queries. For example, polygonal dictionaries allow doing coordinate-to-region lookups using the indexed

When we selected Apache 2.0 license for ClickHouse[1] in 2016, the reasons were the following: Why it is better than MIT and BSD: - it contains the "3. Grant of Patent License." Why it is better than GPL and AGPL: - it does not im

I work in ClickHouse, and I do competitive research. Here are my observations: BigQuery bills over uncompressed data ($20/TB/month), and with the typical compression ratio, it is very expensive. The processing is also very expensi

Also, ClickHouse is the only DBMS implementing aggregate function states as data types to allow them to be stored in tables, saved, loaded, and merged. It allows incremental, continuous aggregate tables. Other DBMSes like TimescaleDB implem

It's worth noting that ClickHouse supports both the standard SQL and the extensions. For example, the standard SQL way to write filtered aggregates is: SELECT avg(number) FILTER (WHERE number > 50) FROM numbers(100) See ht

You can add ClickHouse to the list. While it is not a new database - it has been around since 2016, and in many areas it became almost ubiquitous, it is still less known to many potential users than it should be. Many algorithms and ideas o

Looks like a good scenario for ClickHouse. One option is to just record all the measurements with the corresponding time. Something like a table with: sensor_id, time, value To align and correlate the measurements, simply round down
