    ClickHouse Reviews
    ClickHouse is an open-source OLAP database management software that is fast and easy to use. It is column-oriented, and can generate real-time analytical reports by using SQL queries. ClickHouse's performance is superior to comparable column-oriented database management software currently on the market. It processes hundreds of millions of rows to more than a million and tens if not thousands of gigabytes per second. ClickHouse makes use of all hardware available to process every query as quickly as possible. Peak processing speed for a single query is more than 2 Terabytes per Second (after decompression, only utilized columns). To reduce latency, reads in distributed setups are automatically balanced between healthy replicas. ClickHouse supports multimaster asynchronous replication, and can be deployed across multiple datacenters. Each node is equal, which prevents single points of failure.
