As I already said or rather asked there: Assume I already use Clickhouse for example. What are the benefits of QuestDB? Why should I use it instead?

Surely it's a good tech and competition is key. But what are the key points that should make me look into it? There is a lot of story about the making and such, but I don't see the "selling point".

Hey, one of the key differences here is that Clickhouse is owned by a large corporation, Yandex (the Google of Russia) and seems to drive its roadmap in function of the needs of the company. We are committed to our community and driving our roadmap based on their needs rather than having to fulfill needs of a parent company.

Ultimately as a result we think that questDB will be a better fit for your community. We acknowledge that Clickhouse has lot more features as of now being a more mature product.
