Summary

ClickHouse has developed a Bring Your Own Cloud (BYOC) offering that allows customers to deploy ClickHouse in their own cloud infrastructure, specifically on AWS. This deployment model provides a balance between autonomy and convenience, enabling customers to maintain control over their networking, security, and compliance while benefiting from the flexibility and scalability of cloud platforms. The BYOC model tackles key challenges such as infrastructure automation, network security, data isolation, and resource management, ensuring a seamless and secure deployment experience. Customers can easily onboard and manage ClickHouse instances within their VPCs using auto-provisioning mechanisms, with the separation of management and data planes ensuring security and compliance. The approach also optimizes resource management within customer-owned EKS clusters, providing efficient resource utilization while maintaining performance. With scheduled upgrade support and a Kubernetes Upgrader for managed EKS maintenance, customers have control over their infrastructure while minimizing operational overhead. BYOC empowers customers with flexibility, security, and scalability, giving them complete control over their cloud infrastructure while offloading operational complexities to ClickHouse.
