# Clickhouse Action Load (10.3ms)  SELECT  actions.* FROM actions WHERE actions.date = '2017-11-29' AND actions.url = 'http://example.com' AND (actions.name IS NOT NULL)  ORDER BY actions.created_at DESC LIMIT 10
#=> #<ActiveRecord::Relation [#<Action *** >]>

Action.create(url: 'http://example.com', date: Date.yesterday)
# Clickhouse Action Load (10.8ms)  INSERT INTO actions (url, date) VALUES ('http://example.com', '2017-11-28')
#=> true
 
ActionView.maximum(:date)
# Clickhouse (10.3ms)  SELECT maxMerge(actions.date) FROM actions
