  Unlocking the Lakehouse: ClickHouse + Iceberg for Fast, Flexible Analytics

  • ​ ClickHouse is known for lightning-fast analytics at scale. Apache Iceberg, the modern open table format pioneered by Netflix, has revolutionized how organizations manage data in the cloud, especially with object storage and Parquet at the core. When combined, they enable a powerful new pattern: a true high-performance data lakehouse. In this talk, we’ll explore how ClickHouse now supports reading and writing Iceberg tables — delivering instant, flexible analytics on massive datasets, perfect for AI, machine learning, and large-scale BI workloads.
