      Altinity Stable for ClickHouse 22.8.13

      Released: 2023-02-13
      A few months ago, we certified the ClickHouse 22.3 release. It was delivered together with the Altinity Stable build for ClickHouse. Since then many things have happened to ClickHouse. On the Altinity side we continued to put in features but really focused on build process and testing. We started testing the new ClickHouse LTS release 22.8 as soon as it was out in late August. It took us several months to confirm 22.8 is ready for production use and to make sure upgrades go smoothly. As of 22.8.13 we are confident in certifying 22.3 as an Altinity Stable release. For more details, see the full release notes.

        SELECT parseDateTimeBestEffortOrZero('')
        
        Query id: 484baec9-6d00-4c66-a792-85a270d6f2f2
