In this module, Tim covers how minions, separate from the main cluster components, handle offload tasks such as segment creation, merging, and purging for offline tables. This session explores how minions provide a way to execute computationally intensive tasks without burdening the primary servers, and how they integrate with the overall Pinot framework. Dive into the extensibility of Pinot through MinionEventObserver and PinotTaskExecutor interfaces, enabling customization of minion tasks within your Pinot cluster.
