ClickHouse Real-Time Data Writing Guide
There are several main methods for implementing real-time data writing in ClickHouse.
- Utilize messaging middleware such as Kafka or RabbitMQ to send real-time data to a message queue, which is then consumed by ClickHouse’s Kafka engine or RabbitMQ engine to write the data into ClickHouse database.
- Write real-time data directly into the ClickHouse database using the HTTP or TCP interface provided by ClickHouse.
- Using the FileWatcher engine, monitor for any changes in specified directory files. Automatically load the data from newly written files into ClickHouse.
- Utilize other third-party tools or libraries, such as Fluentd or Logstash, to collect real-time data into ClickHouse.
In specific business scenarios and based on actual needs, you can choose the appropriate method to achieve real-time data writing. Using message queues and writing directly through HTTP or TCP interfaces are commonly used methods.
