2022 Changelog

ClickHouse release v21.7.1.7283-prestable FIXME as compared to v21.6.1.6891-prestable

Backward Incompatible Change

  • Improved performance of queries with explicitly defined large sets. Added compatibility setting legacy_column_name_of_tuple_literal. It makes sense to set it to true, while doing rolling update of cluster from version lower than 21.7 to any higher version. Otherwise distributed queries with explicitly defined sets at IN clause may fail during update. #25371 (Anton Popov).
  • Forward/backward incompatible change of maximum buffer size in clickhouse-keeper. Better to do it now (before production), than later. #25421 (alesapin).

New Feature

  • Add support for VFS over HDFS. #11058 (overshov).
  • Provides a way to restore replicated table when the data is (possibly) present, but the ZooKeeper metadata is lost. Resolves #13458. #13652 (Mike Kot).
  • Implement sequenceNextNode() function useful for flow analysis. #19766 (achimbab).
  • Added YAML configuration support to configuration loader. This closes #3607. #21858 (BoloniniD).
  • Added dateName function. #23085 (Daniil Kondratyev).
  • Add quantileBFloat16 aggregate function as well as the corresponding quantilesBFloat16 and medianBFloat16. It is very simple and fast quantile estimator with relative error not more than 0.390625%. This closes #16641. #23204 (Ivan Novitskiy).
  • Support ALTER DELETE queries for Join table engine. #23260 (foolchi).
  • Add a new boolean setting prefer_global_in_and_join which defaults all IN/JOIN as GLOBAL IN/JOIN. #23434 (Amos Bird).
  • add bitpositionToArray function. #23843 (kevin wan).
  • Add aggregate function segmentLengthSum. #24250 (flynn).
  • Support structs and maps in Arrow/Parquet/ORC and dictionaries in Arrow input/output formats. Present new setting output_format_arrow_low_cardinality_as_dictionary. #24341 (Kruglov Pavel).
  • Support compile_expression setting for AARCH64. #24342 (Maksim Kita).
  • Now clickhouse-keeper supports ZooKeeper-like digest ACLs. #24448 (alesapin).
  • Implements the h3ToGeo function. #24867 (Bharat Nallan).
  • Now query_log has two new columns : initial_query_start_time / initial_query_start_time_microsecond that record the starting time of a distributed query if any. #25022 (Amos Bird).
  • Dictionaries added support for Array type. #25119 (Maksim Kita).
  • Add toJSONString function to serialize columns to their JSON representations. #25164 (Amos Bird).
  • ClickHouse database created with MaterializeMySQL now contains all column comments from the MySQL database that materialized. #25199 (Storozhuk Kostiantyn).
  • Added function dateName. Author [Daniil Kondratyev] (@dankondr). #25372 (Maksim Kita).
  • Added function bitPositionsToArray. Closes #23792. Author [Kevin Wan] (@MaxWk). #25394 (Maksim Kita).

Performance Improvement

  • (remove from changelog) Integrate and test experimental compression libraries. Will be available under the flag allow_experimental_codecs. This closes #16775. #17847 (Abi Palagashvili).
  • Add exponential backoff to reschedule read attempt in case RabbitMQ queues are empty. Closes #24340. #24415 (Kseniia Sumarokova).
  • Index of type bloom_filter can be used for expressions with hasAny function with constant arrays. This closes: #24291. #24900 (Vasily Nemkov).

Improvement

  • Fix Zero-Copy replication with several S3 volumes (Fixes #22679). #22864 (ianton-ru).
  • Add ability to push down LIMIT for distributed queries. #23027 (Azat Khuzhin).
  • Respect insert_allow_materialized_columns (allows materialized columns) for INSERT into Distributed table. #23349 (Azat Khuzhin).
  • Here will be listed all the bugs that I am gonna to fix in this PR. #23518 (Nikita Mikhaylov).
  • Display progress for File table engine in clickhouse-local and on INSERT query in clickhouse-client when data is passed to stdin. Closes #18209. #23656 (Kseniia Sumarokova).
  • Handle column name clashes for storage join, close #20309. #23769 (Vladimir C).
  • Add ability to split distributed batch on failures (i.e. due to memory limits, corruptions), under distributed_directory_monitor_split_batch_on_failure (OFF by default). #23864 (Azat Khuzhin).
  • Add standalone clickhouse-keeper symlink to the main clickhouse binary. Now it's possible to run coordination without the main clickhouse server. #24059 (alesapin).
  • Suppress exceptions from logger code. #24069 (Azat Khuzhin).
  • Use global settings for query to VIEW. Fixed the behavior when queries to VIEW use local settings, that leads to errors if setting on CREATE VIEW and SELECT were different. As for now, VIEW won't use these modified settings, but you can still pass additional settings in SETTINGS section of CREATE VIEW query. Close #20551. #24095 (Vladimir C).
  • Add settings (connection_auto_close/connection_max_tries/connection_pool_size) for MySQL storage engine. #24146 (Azat Khuzhin).
  • Fix trailing whitespaces in FROM clause with subqueries in multiline mode, and also changes the output of the queries slightly in a more human friendly way. #24151 (Azat Khuzhin).
  • Recognize IPv4 addresses like 127.0.1.1 as local. This is controversial and closes #23504. Michael Filimonov will test this feature. #24316 (Alexey Milovidov).
  • Fix IPv6 addresses resolving (i.e. fixes select * from remote('[::1]', system.one)). #24319 (Azat Khuzhin).
  • Now query_log has two new columns : initial_query_start_time / initial_query_start_time_microsecond that record the starting time of a distributed query if any. #24388 (Amos Bird).
  • Rewrite more columns to possible alias expressions. This may enable better optimization, such as projections. #24405 (Amos Bird).
  • Added optimization, that transforms some functions to reading of subcolumns to reduce amount of read data. E.g., statement col IS NULL is transformed to reading of subcolumn col.null. Optimization can be enabled by setting optimize_functions_to_subcolumns. #24406 (Anton Popov).
  • Fix a data race on Keeper shutdown. #24412 (alesapin).
  • Support postgres schema for insert queries. Closes #24149. #24413 (Kseniia Sumarokova).
  • If SSDDictionary is created with DDL query, it can be created only inside user_files directory. #24466 (Maksim Kita).
  • Make String-to-Int parser stricter so that toInt64('+') will throw. #24475 (Amos Bird).
  • Add merge tree setting max_parts_to_merge_at_once which limits the number of parts that can be merged in the background at once. Doesn't affect OPTIMIZE FINAL query. Fixes #1820. #24496 (alesapin).
  • Avoid hiding errors like Limit for rows or bytes to read exceeded for scalar subqueries. #24545 (nvartolomei).
  • Add two Replicated*MergeTree settings: max_replicated_fetches_network_bandwidth and max_replicated_sends_network_bandwidth which allows to limit maximum speed of replicated fetches/sends for table. Add two server-wide settings (in default user profile): max_replicated_fetches_network_bandwidth_for_server and max_replicated_sends_network_bandwidth_for_server which limit maximum speed of replication for all tables. The settings are not followed perfectly accurately. Turned off by default. Fixes #1821. #24573 (alesapin).
  • Respect max_distributed_connections for insert_distributed_sync (otherwise for huge clusters and sync insert it may run out of max_thread_pool_size). #24754 (Azat Khuzhin).
  • Fixed a bug in Replicated database engine that might rarely cause some replica to skip enqueued DDL query. #24805 (Alexander Tokmakov).
  • Some queries require multi-pass semantic analysis. Try reusing built sets for IN in this case. #24874 (Amos Bird).
  • Allow not in operator to be used in partition pruning. #24894 (Amos Bird).
  • Improved logging of S3 errors, no more double spaces in case of empty keys and buckets. #24897 (Vladimir Chebotarev).
  • For distributed query, when optimize_skip_unused_shards=1, allow to skip shard with condition like (sharding key) IN (one-element-tuple). (Tuples with many elements were supported. Tuple with single element did not work because it is parsed as literal). #24930 (Amos Bird).
  • Detect linux version at runtime (for worked nested epoll, that is required for async_socket_for_remote/use_hedged_requests, otherwise remote queries may stuck). #25067 (Azat Khuzhin).
  • Increase size of background schedule pool to 128 (background_schedule_pool_size setting). It allows avoiding replication queue hung on slow zookeeper connection. #25072 (alesapin).
  • Fix topLevelDomain() for IDN hosts (i.e. example.рф), before it returns empty string for such hosts. #25103 (Azat Khuzhin).
  • On server start, parts with incorrect partition ID would not be ever removed, but always detached. #25070. #25166 (Nikolai Kochetov).
  • Correct memory tracking in aggregate function topK. This closes #25259. #25260 (Alexey Milovidov).
  • Use separate clickhouse-bridge group and user for bridge processes. Set oom_score_adj so the bridges will be first subjects for OOM killer. Set set maximum RSS to 1 GiB. Closes #23861. #25280 (Kseniia Sumarokova).
  • Update prompt in clickhouse-client and display a message when reconnecting. This closes #10577. #25281 (Alexey Milovidov).
  • Add support for function if with Decimal and Int types on its branches. This closes #20549. This closes #10142. #25283 (Alexey Milovidov).
  • Add settings http_max_fields, http_max_field_name_size, http_max_field_value_size. #25296 (Ivan).
  • Add == operator on time conditions for sequenceMatch and sequenceCount functions. For eg: sequenceMatch('(?1)(?t==1)(?2)')(time, data = 1, data = 2). #25299 (Christophe Kalenzaga).
  • Support Interval for LowCardinality, close #21730. #25410 (Vladimir C).
  • Flatbuffers library updated to v.2.0.0. Improvements list https://github.com/google/flatbuffers/releases/tag/v2.0.0. #25474 (Ilya Yatsishin).
  • Drop replicas from dirname for internal_replication=true (allows INSERT into Distributed with cluster from any number of replicas, before only 15 replicas was supported, everything more will fail with ENAMETOOLONG while creating directory for async blocks). #25513 (Azat Khuzhin).
  • Resolve the actual port number bound when a user requests any available port from the operating system. #25569 (bnaecker).
  • Improve startup time of Distributed engine. #25663 (Azat Khuzhin).
