Apache Druid

Transferring real-time data stream processed by Apache Flink to Kafka to Druid for analysis

Businesses can react quickly and effectively to user behavior patterns by using real-time analytics. This allows them to take advantage of opportunities that might otherwise pass them by and prevent problems from getting worse. Apache Kafka, a popular event streaming platform, can be used for real-time ingestion of data/events generated from various sources across multiple verticals such as IoT, financial transactions, inventory, etc. This data can then be streamed into multiple downstream applications or engines for further processing and eventual...

Understanding Apache Druid Supervisor and its specification for real-time data ingestion from Apache Kafka

Although both Apache Druid and Apache Kafka are potent open-source data processing tools, they have diverse uses. While Druid is a high-performance, column-store, real-time analytical database, Kafka is a distributed platform for event streaming. However, they can work together in a typical data pipeline scenario where Kafka is used as a messaging system to ingest and store data/events, and Druid is used to perform real-time analytics on that data. In short, the indexing is the process of loading data in Druid...
