Bringing Azure Data into ClickHouse

ClickHouse Supported

Microsoft Azure offers a wide range of tools to store, transform, and analyze data. However, in many scenarios, ClickHouse can provide significantly better performance for low-latency querying and processing of huge datasets. In addition, ClickHouse’s columnar storage and compression can greatly reduce the cost of querying large volumes of analytical data compared to general-purpose Azure databases.

In this section of the docs, we will explore two ways to ingest data from Microsoft Azure into ClickHouse:

Method Description
Using the azureBlobStorage Table Function Involves using ClickHouse’s azureBlobStorage Table Function to transfer data directly from Azure Blob Storage.
Using the ClickHouse HTTP interface Uses the ClickHouse HTTP interface as a data source within Azure Data Factory, allowing you to copy data or use it in data flow activities as part of your pipelines.
