Business intelligence with ClickHouse
Say goodbye to loading spinners and lengthy report wait times. For Business Intelligence, ClickHouse unlocks faster queries at a fraction of the cost.
Analyze all data, in any format
ClickHouse provides support for 70+ file formats - from Parquet to JSON, CSV, TSV, and many more. For local files, clickhouse-local provides a powerful and portable tool to query, convert and transform data on your local machine, too.
Integrate with your favorite tools
Our vibrant and growing ecosystem of integrations makes it easy to leverage the tools and frameworks you already love - from MySQL-compatible tools, to popular visualization products like Tableau, as well as language clients, dbt, and many more.
Reduce cost and maximize efficiency
Many traditional data warehouses charge per query, limit concurrency, and gate critical features behind higher pricing tiers. With ClickHouse, speed comes out-of-the box. And, you only pay for the compute and compressed storage you actually use.
Simplify your SQL
ClickHouse supports an extensive library of domain-specific functions that scale seamlessly over billions of records, and transform even the most complex queries into simple SQL statements. With ClickHouse, data exploration is easy and powerful.
What our customers say
"At Lyft, we ingest tens of millions of rows and execute millions of read queries in ClickHouse daily with volume continuing to increase. On a monthly basis, this means reading and writing more than 25TB of data."
Business intelligence with ClickHouse
Running traditional BI tools on data warehouses for analytics can be costly and often results in performance and concurrency limitations. Companies leverage ClickHouse as their real-time data warehouse to ensure that analytics and business intelligence shine at any scale.
Best-in-class
performance
Unlike other JVM-based solutions which are limited in their ability to scale vertically due to costly GC cycles on larger heaps, ClickHouse leverages the full resources of a machine and scales both horizontally and vertically with hundreds of cores and petabytes of storage.
Flexible and scalable concurrency
With ClickHouse, you can build the powerful Business Intelligence applications your users will love without worrying about responsiveness at scale. Ingest millions of rows per second. Handle the most heavily concurrent workloads. All without compromising query speed.
