Backend Request: ClickHouse

[tomtom215]

Hello,

I would like to request https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse as an available backend database for similar reasons that DuckDB is so useful.

Thank you!

Hi @tomtom215 - realise this is some way down the road, but there is now a separate package providing a Clickhouse interface to Splink, which you can install to use Clickhouse as the backend for Splink calculations. It is also available on PyPI.

It probably won't be receiving the same level of support as Splink itself, but I will try to keep it in working order and respond to any bug reports.
