The data generated by TPDS data gen will be of .dat format,but we can import only the formats supported by clickhouse of which there is no option for .dat format.
You can find those details here
.dat to .csv
Since I got all the data in .dat format and have to change to .csv format. As a data wrangler i was just curios to cat it and see what actually i got.

Luckily i can cat in to the file and the data is “|”separated , so now it is not so hard to change the .dat extension to .csv. I accomplished with help of script as shown below.

Conclusion
This is my first attempt to benchmark of any OLAP of this kind,even-though i worked in Redshift with multi node cluster bigger than this but the performance offered by single node of this kind was very impressive on a CPU based system.
That being said, running single node ClickHouse server is comparatively easy with respect to cluster using zookeeper. ClickHouse is the fastest calculation in all open source MPP computing frameworks. It is very exciting when doing multi-column tables and querying a large number of rows. However, when doing multi-table joins, Its performance is not as good as a single wide table query.The performance test results show that ClickHouse shows a great performance advantage in single-table query, but the performance is poor in multi-table queries especially in multi table join.As i tried to make a multi table in to a single wide column table (Star –> Flat table) the performance was better with respect to speed and cost,but initially it took substantial amount of time and annoyed with errors like”DB::Exception: Memory limit (for query) exceeded” finally i succeeded by tuning some memory settings for single query found in clickhouse-server settings(getting optimum level of memory setting was tedious since if you allocate more memory for a single query then clickhouse-server will be killed).
Refer “tpcdsch.catalog_sales_flat” table.
With some tuning and leveraging materialised views one can further improve the performance.
Selection of

PARTITION BY (partition key)
ORDER BY (order by key)
Plays an important role in optimising the query performance, mainly it depends upon business use case and query access patterns,in my case i selected based on queries i used and best practices described in documentation.
One important feature i am fascinated about ClickHouse is clickhouse-local as the doumentation states that the ‘clickhouse-local’ program enables you to perform fast processing on local files, without having to deploy and configure the ClickHouse server.
This is one of the powerful feature where one can use this instead of Spark for data cleaning and preparation in which i relayed upon most.
Thanks for being with me so for, hope you like it, if you felt anything i missed let me know in comments.
