QueryCanary Now Supports ClickHouse and MySQL

Posted on: 2025-06-05

We’re excited to announce that QueryCanary now supports two of the most popular database engines in modern analytics and SaaS: ClickHouse and MySQL! 🎉

Why ClickHouse and MySQL?

Our mission is to help teams catch silent data issues before they impact your business. That means meeting you where your data lives. ClickHouse and MySQL are trusted by thousands of teams for everything from real-time analytics to core transactional workloads. Now, you can monitor, alert, and automate checks on these databases with the same power and ease you expect from QueryCanary.

What Can You Do?

  • Run SQL checks on your ClickHouse or MySQL databases, just like you do with PostgreSQL.
  • Detect anomalies in your analytics pipelines, dashboards, or production data.
  • Get alerted when your data drifts, breaks, or changes unexpectedly—no matter which engine you use.
  • Visualize results and track trends over time, all in one place.

How It Works

Just add a new database in QueryCanary, select ClickHouse or MySQL, and enter your connection details. You can start writing checks in SQL immediately—no extra setup required.

  • For ClickHouse, we support both cloud and self-hosted deployments via the official HTTP and native protocols.
  • For MySQL, you can connect to any version 5.7+ instance, including managed services like AWS RDS or Google Cloud SQL.

Example: Monitoring a ClickHouse Table

SELECT count(*) FROM events WHERE event_date = today();

Example: Monitoring a MySQL Table

SELECT COUNT(*) FROM users WHERE created_at >= CURDATE() - INTERVAL 1 DAY;

Why This Matters

Data issues don’t discriminate by database. Whether you’re running a high-throughput analytics cluster or a classic transactional app, QueryCanary helps you:

  • Catch silent failures and schema changes
  • Detect drops or spikes in key metrics
  • Alert your team before customers notice
