让我们考虑下一个场景：
需要将数组转换为关系（行集）时

/* get error */
SELECT 1
WHERE 1 IN ([1, 2]);

/* ok */
SELECT 1
WHERE 1 IN (SELECT arrayJoin([1, 2]));

/* get error */
SELECT *
FROM (SELECT [1, 2] a)
WHERE a = 2;

/* ok */
SELECT *
FROM (SELECT arrayJoin([1, 2]) a)
WHERE a = 2;

SELECT
    metric_id,
    metric_name,
    arrayJoin(metric_values) AS metric_value
FROM
( /* test data */
    SELECT
        1 AS metric_id,
        'name_1' AS metric_name,
        [1, 4, 55] AS metric_values
    UNION ALL
    SELECT
        2 AS metric_id,
        'name_2' AS metric_name,
        [-7, 11] AS metric_values
)
/* result

/* produce Cartesian product */
SELECT
    arrayJoin([1, 2]) AS n,
    arrayJoin(['a', 'b']) AS ll,
    arrayJoin(['A', 'B']) AS ul
/* result

当需要逐项链接数组而不是获得笛卡尔积时，请考虑使用数组联接：

/* cartesian product */

SELECT
    arrayJoin(arr1),
    arrayJoin(arr2)
FROM
(
    SELECT
        [1, 2] AS arr1,
        [11, 22] AS arr2
)

/*
┌─arrayJoin(arr1)─┬─arrayJoin(arr2)─┐
│               1 │              11 │
│               1 │              22 │
│               2 │              11 │
│               2 │              22 │
└─────────────────┴─────────────────┘

/* connect array's item one by one */

SELECT a1, a2, arr1, arr2
FROM
(
    SELECT
        [1, 2] AS arr1,
        [11, 22] AS arr2
)
ARRAY JOIN arr1 as a1, arr2 as a2

/*
┌─a1─┬─a2─┬─arr1──┬─arr2────┐
│  1 │ 11 │ [1,2] │ [11,22] │
│  2 │ 22 │ [1,2] │ [11,22] │
└────┴────┴───────┴─────────┘
