Metamarkets Druid

Druid and Spark Together – Mixing Analytics Workflows

One method of looking at the human thought process is that we have different brain workflows for different analytics and data processing needs. At Metamarkets we have the same thing […]

Druid is a column-oriented, open-source, distributed data store written in Java. Druid is designed to quickly ingest massive quantities of event data, and provide low-latency queries on top of the data. The name Druid comes from the shapeshifting Druid class in many role-playing games, to reflect that the architecture of the system can shift to solve different types of data problems.

Introducing Druid: The Real-Time Analytics Data Store | MetamarketsDruid is commonly used in business intelligence-OLAP applications to analyze high volumes of real-time and historical data. Druid is used in production by technology companies such as Alibaba, Airbnb, Cisco, eBay, Lyft, Netflix, PayPal, Pinterest, Reddit, Twitter, Walmart, Wikimedia Foundation and Yahoo

Druid’s key features are:

  • Distributed architecture. Swappable read-only data segments using an MVCC swapping protocol. Per-segment replication relieves load on hot segments. Supports both in-memory and memory-mapped versions.
  • Real-time ingestion. Real-time ingestion coupled with broker servers to query across real-time and historical data. Automated migration of real-time to historical as it ages.
  • Column-oriented for speed. Data is laid out in columns so that scans are limited to specific data being searched. Compression decreases overall data footprint.
  • Fast filtering. Bitmap indices with CONCISE compression.
  • Operational simplicity. Fault tolerant due to replication. Supports rolling deployments and restarts. Allows simple scale up and scale down – just add or remove nodes.
