Happy ClickHouse user here. This is one amazing piece of software to be honest, for anyone ever wanted to parse, analyse and query billions of time series entry points ClickHouse is the way to go.

The cloud offering seems like an amazing product for companies that they could afford I am not sure if the billing is right, but for 5M inserts per month the total bill would be $62K.

That can’t be right, that’s insane. I would find it easy to do 5m inserts in 30 minutes.
A write unit is not the same thing as a single insert, if for that cost you've multiplied it up.
I hate the part of my brain that has allowed the name to interfere with my interest in even looking at it.
No, write unit is not a single INSERT. A single INSERT will take around 0.01 write units.
That's quite high price tag per insert, do you have to write large amount of data per insert?
