"Easy integration with your existing data pipelines"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Druid?

easy integration with existing framework , good fit for realtime analytics which need to be performant Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Druid?

The major drawback of this solution is that with commodity deep storage (Amazon S3) and network, it would make the majority of queries in our use case run for 10 of seconds, instead of current 0 — 3 seconds. I think decoupling of storage and compute is the future including time series databases. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
