That's not recommended. Column-oriented (relational) databases store data by column instead of by row, which helps in large-scale OLAP reads of data but is extremely slow when writing or updating individual rows (since multiple rows have to be grouped into a column segment).

Postgres and other OLTP databases are a better fit.
