The `Log` and `StripeLog` engines support:
|
The `TinyLog` engine is the simplest in the family and provides the poorest functionality and lowest efficiency. The `TinyLog` engine does not support a parallel reading of data. It reads the data slower than other engines of the family that have parallel reading, and it uses almost as many descriptors as the `Log` engine because it stores each column in a separate file. Use it in simple low-load scenarios.

- Locks for concurrent data access.
|
The `Log` and `StripeLog` engines support parallel reading of data. When reading data ClickHouse uses multiple threads. Each thread processes separated data block. The `Log` engine uses the separate file for each column of the table. The `StripeLog` stores all the data in one file. Thus the `StripeLog` engine uses fewer descriptors in the operating system, but the `Log` engine provides a more efficient reading of the data.

The simplest table engine, which stores data on a disk.
|
The typical way using this table engine is write-once method: firstly write the data one time, then read it as many times as needed. For example, you can use `TinyLog`-type tables for intermediary data that is processed in small batches.
|

Each column is stored in a separate compressed file.
|
|
||||||
When writing, data is appended to the end of files.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Concurrent data access is not restricted in any way:
|
Queries are executed in a single stream. In other words, this engine is intended for relatively small tables (recommended up to about 1,000,000 rows). It makes sense to use this table engine if you have many small tables, since it is simpler than the [Log](log.md) engine (fewer files need to be opened).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- If you are simultaneously reading from a table and writing to it in a different query, the read operation will complete with an error.
|
The situation when you have a large number of small tables guarantees poor productivity, but may already be used when working with another DBMS, and you may find it easier to switch to using `TinyLog`-type tables.
