Evidence-backed facts
- ClickHouse is documented as a column-oriented SQL DBMS for OLAP, available as open-source software and a cloud offering. informative
- Analytical queries can filter and aggregate selected columns, and supported SQL behavior must be checked against the exact query and deployment. informative
- Replication is asynchronous and role-based access control is separately configured; a write acknowledgement is not universal proof that every replica is current. informative
- Some calculations and sampled queries can be approximate, so an answer must declare exactness instead of treating every result as exact or transactional. informative
