ClickHouse release 25.1, 2025-01-28​

Backward Incompatible Change​

  • JSONEachRowWithProgress will write the progress whenever the progress happens. In previous versions, the progress was shown only after each block of the result, which made it useless. Change the way how the progress is displayed: it will not show zero values. This closes #70800. #73834 (Alexey Milovidov).
  • Merge tables will unify the structure of underlying tables by using a union of their columns and deriving common types. This closes #64864. In certain cases, this change could be backward incompatible. One example is when there is no common type between tables, but conversion to the type of the first table is still possible, such as in the case of UInt64 and Int64 or any numeric type and String. If you want to return to the old behavior, set merge_table_max_tables_to_look_for_schema_inference to 1 or set compatibility to 24.12 or earlier. #73956 (Alexey Milovidov).
  • Parquet output format converts Date and DateTime columns to date/time types supported by Parquet, instead of writing them as raw numbers. DateTime becomes ateTime64(3) (was: UInt32); setting output_format_parquet_datetime_as_uint32 brings back the old behavior. Date becomes Date32 (was: UInt16). #70950 (Michael Kolupaev).
  • Don't allow not comparable types (like JSON/Object/AggregateFunction) in ORDER BY and comparison functions less/greater/equal/etc by default. #73276 (Pavel Kruglov).
  • The obsolete MaterializedMySQL database engine has been removed and is no longer available. #73879 (Alexey Milovidov).
  • The mysql dictionary source no longer does SHOW TABLE STATUS query, because it does not provide any value for InnoDB tables, as long as for any recent MySQL versions. This closes #72636. This change is backward compatible, but put in this category so you have a chance to notice it. #73914 (Alexey Milovidov).
  • CHECK TABLE queries now require a separate, CHECK grant. In previous versions, it was enough to have SHOW TABLES grant to run these queries. But a CHECK TABLE query can be heavy, and usual query complexity limits for SELECT queries don't apply to it. It led to the potential of DoS. #74471 (Alexey Milovidov).
  • Function h3ToGeo() now returns the results in the order (lat, lon) (which is the standard order for geometric functions). Users who wish to retain the legacy result order (lon, lat) can set setting h3togeo_lon_lat_result_order = true. #74719 (Manish Gill).
  • A new MongoDB driver is now the default. Users who like to continue using the legacy driver can set server setting use_legacy_mongodb_integration to true. #73359 (Robert Schulze).

New Feature​

  • Implement Iceberg tables partition pruning for time-related transform partition operations in Iceberg. #72044 (Daniil Ivanik).
  • SELECT and VIEW statements now support extended aliases redefining column names, e.g., SELECT b FROM (SELECT number, number*2 FROM numbers(2)) AS x(a, b);. This enables TPC-H query 15 to run without modifications. #72480 (Yarik Briukhovetskyi).
  • Support subcolumns in MergeTree sorting key and skip indexes. #72644 (Pavel Kruglov).
  • Support reading HALF_FLOAT values from Apache Arrow/Parquet/ORC (they are read into Float32). This closes #72960. Keep in mind that IEEE-754 half float is not the same as BFloat16. Closes #73835. #73836 (Alexey Milovidov).
  • The system.trace_log table will contain two new columns, symbols and lines containing symbolized stack trace. It allows for easy collection and export of profile information. This is controlled by the server configuration value symbolize inside trace_log and is enabled by default. #73896 (Alexey Milovidov).
  • Add a new function, generateSerialID, which can be used to generate auto-incremental numbers in tables. Continuation of #64310 by kazalika. This closes #62485. #73950 (Alexey Milovidov).
  • Add syntax query1 PARALLEL WITH query2 PARALLEL WITH query3 ... PARALLEL WITH queryN for DDL queries. That means subqueries {query1, query2, ... queryN} are allowed to run in parallel with each other (and it's preferable). #73983 (Vitaly Baranov).
  • Added an in-memory cache for deserialized skipping index granules. This should make repeated queries that use skipping indexes faster. The size of the new cache is controlled by server settings skipping_index_cache_size and skipping_index_cache_max_entries. The original motivation for the cache were vector similarity indexes which became a lot faster now. #70102 (Robert Schulze).
  • Now, the embedded Web UI has a progress bar during query runtime. It allows cancelling queries. It displays the total number of records and the extended information about the speed. The table can be rendered incrementally as soon as data arrives. Enable HTTP compression. Rendering of the table became faster. The table header became sticky. It allows selecting cells and navigating them by arrow keys. Fix the issue when the outline of the selected cell makes it smaller. Cells no longer expand on mouse hover but only on selection. The moment to stop rendering the incoming data is decided on the client rather than on the server side. Highlight digit groups for numbers. The overall design was refreshed and became bolder. It checks if the server is reachable and the correctness of credentials and displays the server version and uptime. The cloud icon is contoured in every font, even in Safari. Big integers inside nested data types will be rendered better. It will display inf/nan correctly. It will display data types when the mouse is over a column header. #74204 (Alexey Milovidov).
  • Add the ability to create min-max (skipping) indices by default for columns managed by MergeTree using settings enable_minmax_index_for_all_numeric_columns (for numeric columns) and enable_minmax_index_for_all_string_columns (for string columns). For now, both settings are disabled, so there is no behavior change yet. #74266 (Smita Kulkarni).
  • Add script_query_number and script_line_number fields to system.query_log, to the ClientInfo in the native protocol, and to server logs. This closes #67542. Credits to pinsvin00 for kicking off this feature earlier in #68133. #74477 (Alexey Milovidov).
  • Added aggregation function sequenceMatchEvents which return timestamps of matched events for longest chain of events in pattern. #72349 (UnamedRus).
  • Added function arrayNormalizedGini. #72823 (flynn).
  • Add minus operator support for DateTime64, to allow subtraction between DateTime64 values, as well as DateTime. #74482 (Li Yin).

Experimental Features​

Performance Improvement​

  • Optimized function indexHint. Now, columns that are only used as arguments of function indexHint are not read from the table. #74314 (Anton Popov). If the indexHint function is a central piece of your enterprise data architecture, this optimization will save your life.
  • More accurate accounting for max_joined_block_size_rows setting for parallel_hash JOIN algorithm. Helps to avoid increased memory consumption compared to hash algorithm. #74630 (Nikita Taranov).
  • Support predicate push down optimization on the query plan level for the MergingAggregated step. It improves performance for some queries with the analyzer. #74073 (Nikolai Kochetov).
  • Splitting of left table blocks by hash was removed from the probe phase of the parallel_hash JOIN algorithm. #73089 (Nikita Taranov).
  • Optimize RowBinary input format. Closes #63805. #65059 (Pavel Kruglov).
  • Write parts with level 1 if optimize_on_insert is enabled. It allows to use several optimizations of queries with FINAL for freshly written parts. #73132 (Anton Popov).
  • Speedup string deserialisation by some low-level optimisation. #65948 (Nikita Taranov).
  • When running a equality comparison between records, such as during merges, start to compare rows from most likely unequal columns first. #63780 (UnamedRus).
  • Improve grace hash join performance by re-ranking the right join table by keys. #72237 (kevinyhzou).
  • Allow arrayROCAUC and arrayAUCPR to compute partial area of the whole curve, so that its calculation can be parallelized over huge datasets. #72904 (Emmanuel).
  • Avoid spawn too many idle threads. #72920 (Guo Wangyang).
  • Don't list blob storage keys if we only have curly brackets expansion in table function. Closes #73333. #73518 (Konstantin Bogdanov).
  • Short circuit optimization for functions executed over Nullable arguments. #73820 (李扬).
  • Do not apply maskedExecute on non-function columns, improve the performance of short circuit execution. #73965 (lgbo).
  • Disable the autodetection of headers in input formats for Kafka/NATS/RabbitMQ/FileLog to improve performance. #74006 (Azat Khuzhin).
  • Execute pipeline with a higher degree of parallelism after aggregation with grouping sets. #74082 (Nikita Taranov).
  • Reduce critical section in MergeTreeReadPool. #74202 (Guo Wangyang).
  • Parallel replicas performance improvement. Packets deserialization on query initiator, for packets not related to parallel replicas protocol, now always happens in pipeline thread. Before, it could happen in a thread responsible for pipeline scheduling, which could make initiator less responsive and delay pipeline execution. #74398 (Igor Nikonov).
  • Improve performance of larger multi requests in Keeper. #74849 (Antonio Andelic).
  • Use log wrappers by value and don't allocate them in a heap. #74034 (Mikhail Artemenko).
  • Reestablish connection to MySQL and Postgres dictionary replicas in the background so it wouldn't delay requests to corresponding dictionaries. #71101 (Yakov Olkhovskiy).
  • Parallel replicas used historical information about replica availability to improve replica selection but did not update the replica's error count when the connection was unavailable. This PR updates the replica's error count when unavailable. #72666 (zoomxi).
  • Added a merge tree setting materialize_skip_indexes_on_merge which suppresses the creation of skip indexes during merge. This allows users to control explicitly (via ALTER TABLE [..] MATERIALIZE INDEX [...]) when skip indexes are created. This can be useful if skip indexes are expensive to build (e.g. vector similarity indexes). #74401 (Robert Schulze).
  • Optimize keeper requests in Storage(S3/Azure)Queue. #74410 (Kseniia Sumarokova). #74538 (Kseniia Sumarokova).
  • Use up to 1000 parallel replicas by default. #74504 (Konstantin Bogdanov).
  • Improve HTTP session reuse when reading from s3 disk (#72401). #74548 (Julian Maicher).

Improvement​

  • Support SETTINGS in a CREATE TABLE query with an implicit ENGINE and support mixing engine and query settings. #73120 (Raúl Marín).
  • Enable use_hive_partitioning by default. #71636 (Yarik Briukhovetskyi).
  • Support CAST and ALTER between JSON types with different parameters. #72303 (Pavel Kruglov).
  • Support equal comparison for values of JSON column. #72991 (Pavel Kruglov).
  • Improve formatting of identifiers with JSON subcolumns to avoid unnecessary back quotes. #73085 (Pavel Kruglov).
  • Interactive metrics improvements. Fix metrics from parallel replicas not being fully displayed. Display the metrics in order of the most recent update, then lexicographically by name. Do not display stale metrics. #71631 (Julia Kartseva).
  • Make JSON output format pretty by default. Add new setting output_format_json_pretty_print to control it and enable it by default. #72148 (Pavel Kruglov).
  • Allow LowCardinality(UUID) by default. This has proven practical among ClickHouse Cloud customers. #73826 (Alexey Milovidov).
  • Better message during installation. #73827 (Alexey Milovidov).
  • Better message about password reset for ClickHouse Cloud. #73831 (Alexey Milovidov).
  • Improve the error message with a File table that cannot perform appends into a file. #73832 (Alexey Milovidov).
  • Ask when a user accidentally requests to output binary format (such as Native, Parquet, Avro) in the terminal. This closes #59524. #73833 (Alexey Milovidov).
  • Highlight trailing spaces in Pretty and Vertical formats in the terminal for better clarity. This is controlled with the output_format_pretty_highlight_trailing_spaces setting. Initial implementation by Braden Burns from #72996. Closes #71590. #73847 (Alexey Milovidov).
  • clickhouse-client and clickhouse-local will autodetect compression of stdin when it is redirected from a file. This closes #70865. #73848 (Alexey Milovidov).
  • Cut too long column names in pretty formats by default. This is controlled by the output_format_pretty_max_column_name_width_cut_to and output_format_pretty_max_column_name_width_min_chars_to_cut settings. This is the continuation of the work of tanmaydatta in #66502. This closes #65968. #73851 (Alexey Milovidov).
  • Make Pretty formats prettier: squash blocks if not much time passed since the output of the previous block. This is controlled by new settings output_format_pretty_squash_consecutive_ms (50 ms by default) and output_format_pretty_squash_max_wait_ms (1000 ms by default). Continuation of #49537. This closes #49153. #73852 (Alexey Milovidov).
  • Add a metric on the number of currently merging source parts. This closes #70809. #73868 (Alexey Milovidov).
  • Highlight columns in the Vertical format if the output is to a terminal. This can be disabled with the output_format_pretty_color setting. #73898 (Alexey Milovidov).
  • Enhanced the MySQL compatibility to a level that now, mysqlsh (a rich MySQL CLI from Oracle) can connect to ClickHouse. This is needed to facilitate testing. #73912 (Alexey Milovidov).
  • Pretty formats can render multi-line fields inside a table cell, which improves readability. This is enabled by default and can be controlled by the setting output_format_pretty_multiline_fields. Continuation of the work by Volodyachan in #64094. This closes #56912. #74032 (Alexey Milovidov).
  • Expose X-ClickHouse HTTP headers to JavaScript in the browser. It makes writing applications more convenient. #74180 (Alexey Milovidov).
  • The JSONEachRowWithProgress format will include events with metadata, as well as totals and extremes. It also includes rows_before_limit_at_least and rows_before_aggregation. The format prints the exception properly if it arrives after partial results. The progress now includes elapsed nanoseconds. One final progress event is emitted at the end. The progress during query runtime will be printed no more frequently than the value of the interactive_delay setting. #74181 (Alexey Milovidov).
  • Hourglass will rotate smoothly in Play UI. #74182 (Alexey Milovidov).
  • Even if the HTTP response is compressed, send packets as soon as they arrive. This allows the browser to receive progress packets and compressed data. #74201 (Alexey Milovidov).
  • If the number of output records is larger than N = output_format_pretty_max_rows, instead of displaying only the first N rows, we will cut the output table in the middle, displaying N/2 first rows and N/2 last rows. Continuation of #64200. This closes #59502. #73929 (Alexey Milovidov).
  • Allow more general join planning algorithm when hash join algorithm is enabled. #71926 (János Benjamin Antal).
  • Allow to create bloom_filter index on columns with data type DateTime64. #66416 (Yutong Xiao).
  • When min_age_to_force_merge_seconds and min_age_to_force_merge_on_partition_only are both enabled, the part merging will ignore the max bytes limit. #73656 (Kai Zhu).
  • Added HTTP headers to OpenTelemetry span logs table for enhanced traceability. #70516 (jonymohajanGmail).
  • Support writing orc file by custom time zone, not always by the GMT time zone. #70615 (kevinyhzou).
  • Respect IO scheduling settings when writing backups across clouds. #71093 (János Benjamin Antal).
  • Add metric column alias name to system.asynchronous_metrics. #71164 (megao).
  • Historically for some reason, the query ALTER TABLE MOVE PARTITION TO TABLE checked SELECT and ALTER DELETE rights instead of dedicated ALTER_MOVE_PARTITION. This PR makes use of this access type. For compatibility, this permission is also will be granted implicitly if SELECT and ALTER DELETE are granted, but this behavior will be removed in future releases. Closes #16403. #71632 (pufit).
  • Throw an exception when trying to materialize a column in the sort key instead of allowing it to break the sort order. #71891 (Peter Nguyen).
  • Hide secrets in EXPLAIN QUERY TREE. #72025 (Yakov Olkhovskiy).
  • Support parquet integer logical types in the "native" reader. #72105 (Arthur Passos).
  • Interactively request credentials in the browser if the default user requires a password. In previous versions, the server returned HTTP 403; now, it returns HTTP 401. #72198 (Alexey Milovidov).
  • Convert access types CREATE_USER, ALTER_USER, DROP_USER, CREATE_ROLE, ALTER_ROLE, DROP_ROLE from global to parameterized. That means users can now grant access management grants more precise:. #72246 (pufit).
  • Add the latest_fail_error_code_name column to system.mutations. We need this column to introduce a new metric on stuck mutations and use it to build graphs of the errors encountered in the cloud as well as, optionally, adding a new less-noisy alert. #72398 (Miсhael Stetsyuk).
  • Reduce amount of allocation in the ATTACH PARTITION query. #72583 (Konstantin Morozov).
  • Make max_bytes_before_external_sort limit depends on total query memory consumption (previously it was number of bytes in the sorting block for one sorting thread, now it has the same meaning as max_bytes_before_external_group_by - it is total limit for the whole query memory for all threads). Also one more setting added to control on disk block size - min_external_sort_block_bytes. #72598 (Azat Khuzhin).
  • Ignore memory restrictions by trace collector. #72606 (Azat Khuzhin).
  • Add server settings dictionaries_lazy_load and wait_dictionaries_load_at_startup to system.server_settings. #72664 (Christoph Wurm).
  • Adds setting max_backup_bandwidth to the list of settings that can be specified as part of BACKUP/RESTORE queries. #72665 (Christoph Wurm).
  • Reducing the log level for appearing replicated parts in the ReplicatedMergeTree engine to help minimize the volume of logs generated in a replicated cluster. #72876 (mor-akamai).
  • Improve extraction of common expression in disjunctions. Allow simplifying the resulting filter expression even if there's no common subexpression for all the disjuncts. Continuation of #71537. #73271 (Dmitry Novik).
  • In Storage S3Queue/AzureQueue allow to add settings where table was created without settings. #73283 (Kseniia Sumarokova).
  • Introduce a setting least_greatest_legacy_null_behavior (default: false) which controls if functions least and greatest handle NULL arguments by unconditionally returning NULL (if true) or by ignoring them (if false). #73344 (Robert Schulze).
  • Use Keeper multi requests in the cleanup thread of ObjectStorageQueueMetadata. #73357 (Antonio Andelic).
  • When ClickHouse runs under a cgroup we will still collect system-wide asynchronous metrics related to system load, process scheduling, memory etc. They might provide useful signals when ClickHouse is the only process on the host with high resource consumption. #73369 (Nikita Taranov).
  • In storage S3Queue allow to transfer old ordered tables created before 24.6 to new structure with buckets. #73467 (Kseniia Sumarokova).
  • Add system.azure_queue similar to existing system.s3queue. #73477 (Kseniia Sumarokova).
  • Function parseDateTime64 (and its variants) now produces correct results for input dates before 1970 / after 2106. Example: SELECT parseDateTime64InJodaSyntax('2200-01-01 00:00:00.000', 'yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.SSS'). #73594 (zhanglistar).
  • Address some clickhouse-disks usability issues addressed by users. Closes #67136. #73616 (Daniil Ivanik).
  • Allow to alter commit settings in storage S3(Azure)Queue. (Commit settings are: max_processed_files_before_commit, max_processed_rows_before_commit, max_processed_bytes_before_commit, max_processing_time_sec_before_commit). #73635 (Kseniia Sumarokova).
  • In storage S3(Azure)Queue aggregate progress between sources to compare with commit limit settings. #73641 (Kseniia Sumarokova).
  • Support core settings in BACKUP/RESTORE query. #73650 (Vitaly Baranov).
  • Take into account the output_format_compression_level on Parquet output. #73651 (Arthur Passos).
  • Adds reading Apache Arrow's fixed_size_list as an Array instead of treating it as an unsupported type. #73654 (Julian Meyers).
  • Add two backup engines: Memory (keeps backups inside the current user session), and Null (don't keep backups anywhere), which is for testing. #73690 (Vitaly Baranov).
  • concurrent_threads_soft_limit_num and concurrent_threads_soft_limit_num_ratio_to_cores could be changed w/o restart of a server. #73713 (Sergei Trifonov).
  • Add support for extended numeric types (Decimal, big integers) in formatReadable functions. #73765 (Raúl Marín).
  • Support TLS for Postgres wire protocol compatibility. #73812 (scanhex12).
  • The function isIPv4String returned true if the correct IPv4 address was followed by a zero byte, while it should return false in this case. Continuation of #65387. #73946 (Alexey Milovidov).
  • Make the error code in the MySQL wire protocol compatible with MySQL. Continuation of #56831. Closes #50957. #73948 (Alexey Milovidov).
  • Add setting validate_enum_literals_in_opearators to validate enum literals in operators like IN, NOT IN against the enum type and throw an exception if the literal is not a valid enum value. #73985 (Vladimir Cherkasov).
  • In Storage S3(Azure)Queue commit all files (in a single butch defined by commit settings) in a single keeper transaction. #73991 (Kseniia Sumarokova).
  • Disable header detection for executable UDFs and dictionaries (could lead to Function 'X': wrong result, expected Y row(s), actual Y-1). #73992 (Azat Khuzhin).
  • Add the distributed option for EXPLAIN PLAN. Now, EXPLAIN distributed=1 ... appends remote plan to ReadFromParallelRemote* steps. #73994 (Nikolai Kochetov).
  • Use correct return type for not/xor with Dynamic arguments. #74013 (Pavel Kruglov).
  • Allow changing add_implicit_sign_column_constraint_for_collapsing_engine after table creation. #74014 (Christoph Wurm).
  • Support subcolumns in materialized view select query. #74030 (Pavel Kruglov).
  • There are now three simple ways to set a custom prompt in clickhouse-client: 1. via command-line parameter --prompt, 2. in the configuration file, via settings <prompt>[...]</prompt>, and 3. also in the configuration file, via per-connection settings <connections_credentials><prompt>[...]</prompt></connection_credentials>. #74168 (Christoph Wurm).
  • Autodetect secure connection based on connecting to port 9440 in ClickHouse Client. #74212 (Christoph Wurm).
  • Authenticate users with username only for http_handlers (previously it requires user to put the password as well). #74221 (Azat Khuzhin).
  • Support for the alternative query languages PRQL and KQL was marked experimental. To use them, specify settings allow_experimental_prql_dialect = 1 and allow_experimental_kusto_dialect = 1. #74224 (Robert Schulze).

  • Added Iceberg tables names to EXPLAIN. #74485 (alekseev-maksim).
  • Provide a better error message when using RECURSIVE CTE with the old analyzer. #74523 (Raúl Marín).
  • Show extended error messages in system.errors. #74574 (Vitaly Baranov).
  • Allow to use password for client communication with clickhouse-keeper. This feature is not very useful if you specify proper SSL configuration for server and client, but still can be useful for some cases. Password cannot be longer than 16 characters. It's not connected with Keeper Auth model. #74673 (alesapin).
  • Add error code for config reloader. #74746 (Garrett Thomas).
  • Added support for IPv6 addresses in MySQL and PostgreSQL table functions and engines. #74796 (Mikhail Koviazin).
