In this podcast, Scott Taylor, Principal Consultant at MetaMeta Consulting, is joined by Robert Hodges, CEO at Altinity, to discuss ClickHouse, the first open-source, SQL data warehouse that competes with the major DBMS players. Over the course of the conversation, they look at:

  • The history and background of ClickHouse
  • Benefits of open source from a data perspective
  • Management perspectives of the data journey
  • Applying ClickHouse across small to large organisations

Instant analytics and reporting culminate in the new open-source, column-oriented DBMS, ClickHouse. The system has grown to be one of the most popular database projects, with thousands of users generating analytical reports via real-time SQL queries since it publicly launched in 2016 following an 8 year internal testing period with Yandex. When faced with trillions of rows of data and the need to filter, explore, and interact with it, ClickHouse is the solution for businesses.
