Clickhouse is a totally different use case - Cockroach is OLTP, Clickhouse is OLAP. We use both Cockroach and Clickhouse at scale and they are both great but not competing products - Cockroach is great for the types of reads and writes you do when serving user requests, processing transactions etc, but isn't optimal for analytics queries where you are going do things like read and aggregate data on a 50TB table. Clickhouse eats those kinds of aggregate queries for breakfast, and is fast for some types of small read queries too, but it's not built to handle random writes or frequently updating rows of data.
