You can always use different databases for different use cases. There are many applications that require extremely high insertion rates (millions of records per second), very large total number of rows (billions, trillions) and flexible/fast querying/aggregation with high read rates (100's of millions or higher rows/s) and that's sort of the sweet spot IMO for ClickHouse and where you'll be pressed to find alternatives. I'm sure it can be used in other situations but maybe there are more choices if you're in those. |

Unfortunately this is not always realistic, especially in large organizations, I know where I am there is a big push from top (i.e the IT budget people) to standardize everything they want to simplify licenses, support contracts etc.
I may not be doing cutting edge stuff (I work at an Industrial plant) but we do have mixed data use cases where it could be beneficial to use different dbs but realistically I don't see it happening.
