If you go into it with MySQL/Postgres knowledge you will probably hate it.

I almost wish it didn’t use SQL so that it was clear how different it is. Nothing works like you are used to, footguns galore, and I hate zookeeper.
I’d replace it with Postgres in a heartbeat if I thought I could get away with it, I don’t think our data size really needs CH. Unfortunately, my options are “spin up a Custer on company resources to prove my point” or “spin it up on my own infra” (which is not possible since that would require pulling company data to my servers which I would never do). So instead I’m stuck dealing with CH.
