ClickHouse Installation Custom Resource explained

Let's describe in details ClickHouse Custom Resource
Full example is available in 99-clickhouseinstallation-max.yaml file.
The best way to work with this doc is to open 99-clickhouseinstallation-max.yaml in separate tab and look into it along with reading this explanation.

apiVersion: "clickhouse.altinity.com/v1"
kind: "ClickHouseInstallation"
metadata:
  name: "clickhouse-installation-test"

Create resource of kind: "ClickHouseInstallation" named as "clickhouse-installation-max". Accessible with kubectl as:

kubectl get clickhouseinstallations.clickhouse.altinity.com 
NAME                           AGE
clickhouse-installation-max   23h

.spec.defaults

  defaults:

      dataVolumeClaimTemplate: default-volume-claim
      logVolumeClaimTemplate: default-volume-claim
      serviceTemplate: chi-service-template

.spec.defaults section represents default values for sections below.

  • .spec.defaults.replicasUseFQDN - should replicas be specified by FQDN in <host></host>
  • .spec.defaults.distributedDDL - reference to <yandex><distributed_ddl></distributed_ddl></yandex>
  • .spec.defaults.templates would be used everywhere where templates is needed.

.spec.configuration

      source1.csv: |
        a1,b1,c1,d1
        a2,b2,c2,d2

.spec.configuration.files allows to introduce custom files to ClickHouse via YAML manifest. This can be used in order to create complex custom configurations. One possible usage example is external dictionary

spec:

        </yandex>

.spec.configuration.clusters

    clusters:

.spec.configuration.clusters represents array of ClickHouse clusters definitions.

Clusters and Layouts

ClickHouse instances layout within cluster is described with .clusters.layout section

      - name: all-counts
        templates:
          podTemplate: clickhouse-v18.16.1
          dataVolumeClaimTemplate: default-volume-claim
          logVolumeClaimTemplate: default-volume-claim
        layout:
          shardsCount: 3
          replicasCount: 2

Pod and VolumeClaim templates to be used can be specified explicitly for each replica:

        templates:
          podTemplate: clickhouse-v18.16.1
          dataVolumeClaimTemplate: default-volume-claim
          logVolumeClaimTemplate: default-volume-claim

layout is specified with basic layout dimensions:

        layout:
          shardsCount: 3
          replicasCount: 2

or with detailed specification of shards and replicas.
shard0 here has replicasCount specified, while shard1 has 3 replicas explicitly specified, with possibility to customized each replica.

      - name: customized
        templates:
          podTemplate: clickhouse-v18.16.1
          dataVolumeClaimTemplate: default-volume-claim
          logVolumeClaimTemplate: default-volume-claim
        layout:
          shards:
            - name: shard0
              replicasCount: 3
              weight: 1
              internalReplication: Disabled
              templates:
                podTemplate: clickhouse-v18.16.1
                dataVolumeClaimTemplate: default-volume-claim
                logVolumeClaimTemplate: default-volume-claim

            - name: shard1
              templates:
                podTemplate: clickhouse-v18.16.1
                dataVolumeClaimTemplate: default-volume-claim
                logVolumeClaimTemplate: default-volume-claim
              replicas:
                - name: replica0
                - name: replica1
                - name: replica2

combination is also possible, which is presented in shard2 specification, where 3 replicas in total are requested with replicasCount and one of these replicas is explicitly specified with different podTemplate:

      - name: customized
        templates:
          podTemplate: clickhouse-v18.16.1
          dataVolumeClaimTemplate: default-volume-claim
          logVolumeClaimTemplate: default-volume-claim
        layout:
          shards:
          
            - name: shard2
              replicasCount: 3
              templates:
                podTemplate: clickhouse-v18.16.1
                dataVolumeClaimTemplate: default-volume-claim
                logVolumeClaimTemplate: default-volume-claim
              replicas:
                - name: replica0
                  port: 9000
                  templates:
                    podTemplate: clickhouse-v19.11.3.11
                    dataVolumeClaimTemplate: default-volume-claim
                    logVolumeClaimTemplate: default-volume-claim

ClickHouse cluster named all-counts represented by layout with 3 shards of 2 replicas each (6 pods total). Pods will be created and fully managed by the operator. In ClickHouse config file this would be represented as:

<yandex>
    <remote_servers>
        <all-counts>
        
            <shard>

            </shard>
            
        </all-counts>
    </remote_servers>
</yandex>

with full IP and DNS management provided by k8s and operator.

Layout with shards count specified

    - name: shards-only
      layout:
        shardsCount: 3 # replicasCount = 1, by default

ClickHouse cluster named shards-only represented by layout with 3 shards of 1 replicas each (3 pods total). Pods will be created and fully managed by the operator. In ClickHouse config file this would be represented as:

<yandex>
    <remote_servers>
        <shards-only>
        
            <shard>
                <replica>
                    <host>192.168.1.1</host>
                    <port>9000</port>
                </replica>
            </shard>
            
            <shard>

                </replica>
            </shard>
            
        </shards-only>
    </remote_servers>
</yandex>

Layout with replicas count specified

    - name: replicas-only
      layout:
        replicasCount: 3 # shardsCount = 1, by default

ClickHouse cluster named replicas-only represented by layout with 1 shard of 3 replicas each (3 pods total). Pods will be created and fully managed by the operator. In ClickHouse config file this would be represented as:

<yandex>
    <remote_servers>
        <replicas-only>
        
            <shard>
                <internal_replication>true</internal_replication>

        </replicas-only>
    </remote_servers>
</yandex>

Advanced layout techniques

layout provides possibility to explicitly define each shard and replica with .spec.configuration.clusters.layout.shards

    - name: customized
      layout:
        shards:
          - replicas:

so we can specify shards and replicas explicitly - either all shards and replias or selectively, only those which we'd like to be different from default template.

Full specification of replicas in a shard. Note - no replicasCount specified, all replicas are described by replicas array:

            - name: shard1
              templates:
                podTemplate: clickhouse-v18.16.1
                dataVolumeClaimTemplate: default-volume-claim
                logVolumeClaimTemplate: default-volume-claim
              replicas:
                - name: replica0
                - name: replica1
                - name: replica2

Another example with selectively described replicas. Note - replicasCount specified and one replica is described explicitly

            - name: shard2
              replicasCount: 3
              templates:
                podTemplate: clickhouse-v18.16.1
                dataVolumeClaimTemplate: default-volume-claim
                logVolumeClaimTemplate: default-volume-claim
              replicas:
                - name: replica0
                  port: 9000
                  templates:
                    podTemplate: clickhouse-v19.11.3.11
                    dataVolumeClaimTemplate: default-volume-claim
                    logVolumeClaimTemplate: default-volume-claim

.spec.templates.serviceTemplates

  templates:
    serviceTemplates:

.spec.templates.serviceTemplates represents Service templates with additional sections, such as:

  1. generateName

generateName is used to explicitly specify service name to be created. generateName provides the following macro substitutions:

  1. {chi} - ClickHouseInstallation name

.spec.templates.podTemplates represents Pod Templates with additional sections, such as:

  1. zone
  2. distribution

zone and distribution together define zoned layout of ClickHouse instances over nodes. Internally it is a shortcut to affinity.nodeAffinity and affinity.podAntiAffinity properly filled.

        zone:
          values:
            - "us-east-1a"
        distribution: "OnePerHost"

Example - how to place ClickHouse instances on nodes labeled as clickhouse=allow with one ClickHouse per host

        zone:
          key: "clickhouse"
          values:
            - "allow"
