With heterogeneous environments becoming more and more common, a bridge between the servers is established. We call this bridge a “Foreign Data […]

Following my post from a year ago https://www.percona.com/blog/2017/07/06/clickhouse-one-year/, I wanted to review what happened in ClickHouse during this year.
There is indeed some interesting news to share. (more…)
Join Percona Chief Evangelist Colin Charles as he covers happenings, gives pointers and provides musings on the open source database community.
OSCON happened last week and was incredible. It is true there was less of a database focus, and a lot more topics covered. In fact, you’d have found it hard to find database content. There was […]
Join Percona CTO Vadim Tkachenko at the Cloud Native Utah meetup in Salt Lake City on Tuesday, May 8, 2018, for an Intro to ClickHouse.
Next week, I’ll be switching from MyRocks performance testing and present an introduction to ClickHouse to the Cloud Native Utah meetup.

In this blog post, I’ll look at how you can analyze MySQL audit logs (Percona Server for MySQL) with ClickHouse and ClickTail.
Audit logs are available with a free plugin for Percona Server for MySQL (https://www.percona.com/doc/percona-server/LATEST/management/audit_log_plugin.html). Besides providing insights about activity on your server, you might need the logs for compliance purposes.
However, on an active server, […]
In this blog post, I’ll look at how you can analyze raw MySQL query logs with ClickHouse.
For typical query performance analyses, we have an excellent tool in Percona Monitoring and Management. You may want to go deeper, though. You might be longing for the ability to query raw MySQL “slow” query logs with SQL.
There […]
In this blog post, I will talk about archiving MySQL tables in ClickHouse for storage and analytics.
Why Archive?
Hard drives are cheap nowadays, but storing lots of data in MySQL is not practical and can cause all sorts of performance bottlenecks. To name just a few issues:
The larger the table and index, the slower the performance […]

In this post, we’ll look at updating and deleting rows with ClickHouse. It’s the second of two parts.
In the first part of this post, we described the high-level overview of implementing incremental refresh on a ClickHouse table as an alternative support for UPDATE/DELETE. In this part, we will show you the actual steps and […]
In this post, we’ll look at updating and deleting rows with ClickHouse. It’s the first of two parts.
Update: Part 2 of this post is here.
ClickHouse is fast – blazing fast! It’s quite easy to pick up, and with ProxySQL integrating with existing applications already using MySQL, it’s way less complex than using other analytics […]
