ClickHouse offers instant results in most cases: the data is processed faster than it takes

Downtime of a single node or the whole datacenter won't affect the system's availability for both reads and
writes.
Distributed reads are automatically balanced to live replicas to avoid increasing latency. Replicated data
are synchronized automatically or semi-automatically after server downtime.< / p >

< p > ClickHouse features a user-friendly SQL query dialect with a number of built-in analytics capabilities.
For example, it includes probabilistic data
structures for fast and memory-efficient calculation of cardinalities and quantiles. There are functions for
working dates, times and time zones, as well as some specialized ones like addressing URLs and IPs
(both IPv4 and IPv6) and many more.< / p >
2017-04-10 14:24:53 +00:00

< p > Data organizing options available in ClickHouse, such as arrays, array joins, tuples and nested data structures, are
2017-04-10 14:24:53 +00:00
extremely efficient for managing denormalized data.< / p >
< p > Using ClickHouse allows joining both distributed data and co-located data, as the system supports local joins and
distributed joins. It also offers an opportunity to use external dictionaries, dimension tables loaded from
2017-06-13 04:15:47 +00:00
an external source, for seamless joins with simple syntax.< / p >

indispensable when dealing with terabytes and petabytes of data.< / p >

single query without having to run a number of them.< / p >

< p > ClickHouse can be configured as purely distributed system located on independent nodes,
without any single points of failure.< / p >
2017-04-10 14:24:53 +00:00
2017-06-13 04:15:47 +00:00
< p > Software and hardware failures or misconfigurations do not result in loss of data. Instead of deleting "broken"
data, ClickHouse saves it or asks you what to do before a startup. All data is checksummed before every
read or write to disk or network. It is virtually impossible to delete data by accident as there are safeguards
even for human errors.< / p >
2017-04-10 14:24:53 +00:00
2017-06-13 04:15:47 +00:00
< p > ClickHouse offers flexible limits on query complexity and resource usage, which can be fine-tuned with settings.
2017-04-10 14:24:53 +00:00
It is possible to simultaneously serve both a number of high priority low-latency requests and some

long-running queries with background priority.< / p >

< p > ClickHouse streamlines all your data processing. It's easy to use: ingest all your structured data into the
system, and it is instantly available for reports. New columns for new properties or dimensions can be
easily added to the system at any time without slowing it down.< / p >
< p > ClickHouse is simple and works out-of-the-box. As well as performing on hundreds of node clusters, this system
can be easily installed on a single server or even a virtual machine. No development experience or code-writing
skills are required to install ClickHouse.< / p >
