Powering Real-Time Analytics with Apache Pinot

Submitted Feb 26, 2025

Abstract

Analytics is changing. Once upon a time, an analytical query taking a few seconds to execute was considered acceptable. Additionally, the query would analyze smaller volumes of data that were loaded in batches. This may have been sufficient for internal dashboards but falls short for customer-facing applications. In today’s on-demand world, customers expect up-to-date insights and millisecond response times — expectations that traditional architectures simply can’t meet.

Originally developed at LinkedIn, Apache Pinot is built specifically to solve the hardest challenges in analytics: realtime, low latency, high throughput analytics.

In this session, we’ll introduce Apache Pinot, explore its architecture, and demonstrate how you can add real-time analytics directly into your applications — powering customer experiences that are fast, fresh, and scalable. Whether you’re building internal dashboards, or customer-facing analytics, Pinot makes real-time possible at scale.
