  • ClickHouse

    ClickHouse® is a free analytics DBMS for big data

  • Interesting to match with the observations from the practice of using ClickHouse[1][2] for time series:

    1. Reordering to SOA helps a lot - this is the whole point of column-oriented databases.

    2. Specialized codecs like Gorilla[3], DoubleDelta[4], and FPC[5] lose to simply using ZSTD[6] compression in most cases, both in compression ratio and in performance.

    3. Specialized time-series DBMS like InfluxDB or TimescaleDB lose to general-purpose relational OLAP DBMS like ClickHouse [7][8][9].
