ArangoDB
Use cases provided by default are good and can be improve better using Machine Learning and AI. AQL query language is very simple and efficient in use if anyone using SQL can quickly learn AQL Language.
Developers can easily map the database and can access various patterns like search, ranking.
JSON and semantic search is the latest and next-generation technology to implement to access and extract large datasets.

The most important thing when using ClickHouse is to be clear that the scenarios in which you want to use it really are the right ones. Many users think that when a database is very fast for a specific use case, it can be extrapolated to other contexts (most of the time different) in which a previous analysis has not been carried out.
ClickHouse is an analytical database, as such, it should be used for such purposes, where the information is stored correctly, the data volumes are really large and the queries to be performed are not the typical traditional queries on several columns with multiple aggregations. ClickHouse is not the solution for this.
On the other hand, if your case is not one of the above, it is quite possible that ClickHouse can help you. Where ClickHouse shines is when you are looking for aggregation over a particular column in large volumes of data.

  • 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

ClickHouse outperforms, especially in costs, since its compression/indexing engines are so smart, and even with very low computing power, you can already perform huge analyses of the data.
