This is pretty good. It will allow us to use PostgREST as an API endpoint to query the ClickHouse database directly

Good idea! Btw, ClickHouse does provide a HTTP interface directly, too! https://clickhouse.com/docs/interfaces/http

What are the typical uses of PostgREST? is it just when you want to make your database accessible to various languages over HTTP because you don't want to use an ORM and connect to your db? But besides that, for an entreprise solution, why would you use PostgREST to develop your backend rather than, say, use an ORM in your language and make direct queries? (honest question)
