 Part of the table definition includes a targeted table engine. The full list of supported table engines in Aiven for ClickHouse can be found :doc:`in this article <../reference/supported-table-engines>`. Aiven for ClickHouse uses ``replicated`` variants of table engines to ensure high availability. Even if you select ``MergeTree`` engine, we will automatically use the replicated variant on our side.
 
 With this knowledge, try out an example dataset described :doc:`over here </docs/products/clickhouse/howto/load-dataset>`.

Please, consider :doc:`granting </docs/products/clickhouse/howto/manage-users-roles>` only necessary permissions to database users.
