ClickHouse Cloud benefits

Some of the benefits of using ClickHouse Cloud are described below:

  • Fast time to value: Start building instantly without having to size and scale your cluster.
  • Seamless scaling: Automatic scaling adjusts to variable workloads so you don't have to over-provision for peak usage.
  • Serverless operations: Sit back while we take care of sizing, scaling, security, reliability, and upgrades.
  • Transparent pricing: Pay only for what you use, with resource reservations and scaling controls.
  • Total cost of ownership: Best price / performance ratio and low administrative overhead.
  • Broad ecosystem: Bring your favorite data connectors, visualization tools, SQL and language clients with you.

What version of ClickHouse does ClickHouse Cloud use?

Clickhouse Cloud periodically upgrades your service to newer versions that include fixes, new features and performance improvements. After publishing a core database version in the open source, we do additional validation in our cloud staging environment, which typically takes 6-8 weeks before rolling out to production. The rollout is phased out by cloud service provider, service type, and region.

You can specify the upgrade schedule for your ClickHouse Cloud service by subscribing to a specific release channel. For example, we offer a "Fast" Release Channel for subscribing to updates ahead of the regular release schedule, as well as a "Slow" Release Channel and other more granular scheduling options for deferred upgrades.

For an overview of ClickHouse Cloud's upgrade process, including backwards compatibility guarantees, see the reference documentation for Upgrades.
