About:
clickhouse-cpp is a high-performance C++ client library designed for interacting with ClickHouse databases. It provides a native interface for efficient data ingestion and querying, offering significantly better performance than standard ODBC/JDBC connectors. The library supports both synchronous and asynchronous operations, making it suitable for demanding, low-latency data workloads.

Key Features:

Native binary protocol implementation for speed
Support for synchronous and asynchronous operations
High-performance bulk data insertion capabilities
Support for advanced ClickHouse data types (Arrays, Maps, Tuples)

Use Cases:

Building high-throughput data ingestion pipelines
Real-time analytics applications requiring low-latency queries
Integrating ClickHouse into existing C++ backend services

Alternatives:

clickhouse-driver – Official Python client; use if your stack is Python-based rather than C++.
ODBC/JDBC Drivers – Generic SQL drivers; clickhouse-cpp offers superior performance via the native protocol.
