ClickHouse support #435

Open vizh opened 2 months ago

vizh commented 2 months ago

We're working with ClickHouse vary closely. It perfectly complements and integrates with PostgreSQL. It helps to solve tasks where PostgreSQL is weak – fast and realtime analytics on hundreds and thousands terabytes of data.

They have an excellent native library for Go which has an interface for database/sql, making its integration into sq much easier.

P.S. Thank you very much for sq! It's amazing!

@vizh Thanks for the kind words re sq, it's always great to hear such positive feedback 🙏

There's no technical reason why ClickHouse support couldn't be implemented, given that there's already a Go stdlib database/sql driver. It's just a matter of effort.

If we can find people who could contribute to that ClickHouse effort, I'd love to implement support for it.
