The Dataflow Java runner lets you execute custom Apache Beam pipelines on Google Cloud's Dataflow service. This approach provides maximum flexibility and is well-suited for advanced ETL workflows.

  How it works
</h2>

1. **Pipeline Implementation**
   To use the Java runner, you need to implement your Beam pipeline using the `ClickHouseIO` - our official Apache Beam connector. For code examples and instructions on how to use the `ClickHouseIO`, please visit [ClickHouse Apache Beam](/integrations/connectors/data-ingestion/etl-tools/apache-beam).

2. **Deployment**
   Once your pipeline is implemented and configured, you can deploy it to Dataflow using Google Cloud's deployment tools. Comprehensive deployment instructions are provided in the [Google Cloud Dataflow documentation - Java Pipeline](https://cloud.google.com/dataflow/docs/quickstarts/create-pipeline-java).

**Note**: This approach assumes familiarity with the Beam framework and coding expertise. If you prefer a no-code solution, consider using [ClickHouse's predefined templates](/integrations/connectors/data-ingestion/GCP/google-dataflow/templates).
