High-Performance Data Pipelines with ClickHouse, PostgreSQL, and CouchDB on VPS
Why ClickHouse + PostgreSQL + CouchDB?
- ClickHouse is a high-performance, columnar OLAP database designed for real-time analytics, log processing, time-series data, and large-scale aggregations. Its vectorized query execution, data compression, and ability to process billions of rows in milliseconds make it ideal for analytics dashboards and IoT pipelines.
- PostgreSQL excels at transactional (OLTP) workloads and hybrid data models.
- CouchDB is a document-oriented NoSQL database, perfect for flexible JSON storage and high-speed writes with eventual consistency.
- By syncing operational data from CouchDB into PostgreSQL and ClickHouse, you get the best of both worlds — fast transactions and lightning-fast analytics — without relying on expensive managed cloud services.
Real-Time Event Streaming
We replicate CosmosDB Change Feed → Synapse-like pipelines using:
- CouchDB’s _changes feed to detect real-time updates.
- Kafka for high-throughput, fault-tolerant event streaming, capable of processing millions of messages per second.
- ClickHouse to run instant analytics queries (aggregates, trends, time-series) on fresh data.
- PostgreSQL for relational joins, metadata storage, or mixed OLTP/OLAP scenarios.
Why VPS for ClickHouse?
- Full Ownership: You have root-level control of performance tuning, schema design, and caching — something cloud vendors often restrict.
- Cost Efficiency: ClickHouse performs extremely well on commodity hardware. Various VPS providers offer high IOPS SSDs at a fraction of AWS or GCP pricing.
- Elastic Scalability: Add or remove nodes easily with Docker Swarm or Kubernetes, taking advantage of ClickHouse’s distributed cluster features.
- Compression and Speed: With LZ4/ZSTD compression and columnar storage, ClickHouse significantly reduces storage costs and query response times.
What We Deliver
- ClickHouse cluster setup on VPS with optimized configurations for your workload.
- CouchDB → Kafka → ClickHouse pipelines for near real-time analytics.
- PostgreSQL integration for transactional or hybrid workloads.
- Custom sync services in Node.js or Python for data transformations.
- Monitoring and HA strategies for 24/7 reliability.
- Performance tuning (vectorized queries, partitioning, caching).
Why ClickHouse Over MariaDB ColumnStore?
- 10–100x faster query performance due to its vectorized query engine.
- Superior compression (up to 10x reduction in storage size).
- True real-time analytics — columnar engines like ClickHouse are built for speed, unlike MariaDB ColumnStore which is better suited for batch workloads.
- Extensive ecosystem: Built-in support for time-series, materialized views, aggregating indexes, and window functions.
