Making Kafka Queryable with Apache Pinot

slides:none on file

Explains how Apache Pinot turns Kafka topics into a low-latency, SQL-queryable analytics store by ingesting Kafka directly into consuming segments on server nodes, writing immutable disk segments, and routing queries via brokers to servers; describes controller, minions and replication, and support for upserts. Shows the multi-stage vs single-stage engines, recommends low-level consumers for tight Kafka integration, and demonstrates the star-tree index that pre-aggregates dimensions to cut query time to ~50 ms at web scale with hundreds of servers and millions of segments.
