ClickHouse can access non-local storage without issue (or at least, with only issues for some of them - HDFS and S3 seem to work fine, I've had less luck with real-time Kafka). I'm not sure how well it scales horizontally for such uses; you can hack something up with macros that isn't too painful but there may also be better options.

However, it's probably not a great pick if you're already struggling with the operations side of things, which seems to be the main selling point for services like Snowflake.
