Slight hijack. I / we went through a very similar tech selection process for timeseries metrics (not logging) ~1.5 years ago. We looked at Druid, ElasticSearch, TimeScale and a bunch of others.
Main takeaways were: the SQL flavor and its aggregations in CH are amazing. Running on a single node for dev laptops is trivial. Itβs crazy fast with almost zero tuning.
It does not surprise me at all the CH is powering new products and startups.
Note: hosted CH did not exist yet. We are using Altinity to run our cluster.
Thanks for the shout out! "Altinity" in this case means Altinity.Cloud, which is a high-performance cloud ClickHouse. It's been around for over 2.5 years.
