+# Setup for development on Clickhouse integration
+
+## Pre-requisites
+
+1. cBioPortal database:
+
+- provisioned with one or more study in the _cbioportal_ database.
+- user: _cbio_ password: _P@ssword1_ with all permissions on the _cbioportal_ database.
+- available on port 3306 on the host system.
+
+3. System with docker and docker compose installed.
+
+## Setup
+
+All commands start from the root repository location.
+
+1. Start cBioPortal database.
+2. Create MySQL views in the cBioPortal database by running the commands
+   in [cbio_database_views.sql](mysql_provisioning/cbio_database_views.sql).
+3. Start Clickhouse (provisioned automatically).
+
+```
+cd ./dev/clickhouse
+docker compose up -d
+```
+
+This will start a Clickhouse instance that is available on the host system:
+- port: _8123_
+- database: _cbioportal_
+- username: _cbio_
+- password: _P@ssword1_
+
+## TODO
+
+- Extend [cbio_database_views.sql](mysql_provisioning/cbio_database_views.sql)
+  and [c_import_mysql_data.sql](clickhouse_provisioning/c_import_mysql_data.sql) to cover all clickhouse tables.
