Pay for what is used:
It automatically scales up and down compute resources based on the user's workload
It scales storage and compute separately
It automatically scales unused resources down to zero so that users don’t pay for idle services
Apache Hive shines for ad-hoc analysis and plugging into BI tools. Its SQL-like syntax allows for ease of use not for only for engineers but also for data analysts. Through our experience, there are probably more desirable tools to use if you are planning on integrating Hive into your processing pipeline.
ClickHouse delivers exceptional speed and performance, positioning it as the top choice for managing large-scale analytical workloads. With a bunch of built-in functions, it empowers analysts to extract maximum insights from data effortlessly. If your scenario is to deal with analytical questions, then ClickHouse is for you, but if you are looking into a transactional database, that's not the case; even their table engines are not made for this.
Their MergeTree table engine provide impressive performance for data insert in bulk
Not only data insert but also the way MergeTree engine uses Primary Keys to sort the data and perform data skipping based on the granules its also their secret for ridiculous fast queries
Data compression its also great
They provide especial table engines that allow you to read data directly from other sources like S3
Since its written with C++ you have very granular data types and especial ones like enum, LowCardinality and etc, they save you a lot of storage since are stored as integer values
ClickHouse functions besides the ones that respect ANSI Standards are also awesome and useful
Hive is a very good big data analysis and ad-hoc query platform, which supports scaling also. The BI processes can be easily integrated with Hadoop via the Hive. It can deal with a much larger data set that traditional RDBMS can not. It is a "must-have" component of the big data domain.
Apache Hive is a FOSS project and its open source. We need not definitely comment on anything about the support of open source and its developer community. But, it has got tremendous developer support, awesome documentation. I would justify the fact that much support can be gathered from the community backup.
We have used a simple but necessary function such as merging certain data tables, which although they may be from different areas, complement each other or are necessary, you can use metadata if what you need is to validate the origin of your information and what impact it has, is also feasible.
ClickHouse was not compared to them as a competitor but as the ideal partner to complete an information analysis system, providing users with the most complete and efficient tools. Therefore, in this case it was considered that it would be the ideal candidate due to its characteristics compared to the other competitors.
