the "Object" data type works very well and is quite performant. But do note that if you have lots of "schemas" you will need to create multiple such columns that represent such columns e.g. one column each for GitHub,GitLab etc.

How would that look like? MatViews in CH are like insert triggers so does it mean that one MatView per schema?

Agree, this is what I was actually after and it actually happens with system data sometimes- you can have "user" field as an int and string in different schemas.

Is it really the case? Assume you have column with schema name and one with json object. And your materialised view/JsonExtract can be dispatched by schema name for a row.

I see the only suboptimal part if different schemas have different types for the same field and it has to convert it to String.
