ClickHouse is a powerful open-source column-oriented database management system that is designed for real-time analytical queries. It is used for data analysis, data warehousing, and other data-intensive tasks. In this tutorial, we will learn how to install, create a database, create tables, load data, run queries, and monitor performance with ClickHouse.
The first step is to install ClickHouse. You can download the latest version from the official website. Once you have downloaded the package, you can install it with the following command:
sudo apt-get install clickhouse-server
Once the installation is complete, you can start the server with the following command:
sudo service clickhouse-server start
Once the server is running, you can create a database with the following command:
clickhouse-client --query="CREATE DATABASE my_database"
Once the database is created, you can create tables with the following command:
clickhouse-client --query="CREATE TABLE my_table (id Int32, name String)"
Once the tables are created, you can load data into them with the following command:
clickhouse-client --query="INSERT INTO my_table VALUES (1, 'John')"
Once the data is loaded, you can run queries with the following command:
clickhouse-client --query="SELECT * FROM my_table"
Once the queries are running, you can monitor the performance with the following command:
clickhouse-client --query="SHOW PROCESSLIST"
