Same thing with columnar/vectorized execution. It has been known for a long time that's the "correct" way to process data for olap workflows, but only became "mainstream" in the last few years(mostly due to arrow).

It's awesome that clickhouse is adopting it now, but a shame that it's not standard on anything that does analytics processing.

Nothing in C-store seems to have sunk in. In clickhouse's case I can forgive them since it was an open source, bootstrap type of project, and their cash infusion seems to be going into basic re-engineering, but in general slowly re-implementing Vertica seems like a flawed business model.

ClickHouse predates Apache Arrow.
