Learn about fundamental concepts and terms
Apache Pinot is an open source distributed database designed for real-time, user-facing analytics.
Real-time analytics is a computer science discipline wherein massive amounts of data generated in relatively short time needs to be ingested, stored, and indexed, followed by additional processes that can search, filter, aggregate, and process that stored data against specific queries to produce results.
User-facing analytics, or customer-facing analytics, are a subset of the domain of real-time analytics that provide massively concurrent query support.
