Some time ago, I finally took the time to test Apache Pinot, you can find the story of my first experiments here. Apache Pinot is a distributed real-time OnLine Analytical Processing (OLAP) datastore specifically designed to provide ultra-low latency analytics, even at extremely high throughput. If you don’t know it, start by reading my introductory article before this one. One of the strengths of Pinot is its different types of indexes, it is these ones that we will explore in…
