Druid is a distributed, real-time analytics data store that was developed at Metamarkets to allow users to break down data sets into smaller subsets for faster and more efficient analysis. In this tutorial, we will show you how to install Druid on your Windows 10 machine.
Before we start, make sure that you have the following prerequisites installed on your machine:
First, download the latest Druid release from the official website: https://druid.io/downloads.html
Unzip the package to a location of your choice.
Druid requires some initial configuration to run. Navigate to the Druid directory and open the following files:
conf/_common/common.runtime.propertiesEdit the druid.host property and set it to localhost.
conf/druid/single-server/middleManager/runtime.propertiesEdit the druid.host property and set it to localhost.
conf/druid/single-server/coordinator/runtime.propertiesEdit the druid.host property and set it to localhost.
conf/druid/single-server/broker/runtime.propertiesEdit the druid.server.maxSize property and set it to a value that works for your machine's resources. The default value is 1g.
Open a command prompt and navigate to the Druid directory.
To build Druid, run:
mvn clean install -DskipTests
This may take some time to complete. Once it's done, start the Druid services by running:
bin/start-micro-quickstart
Druid will start running on port 8081.
Open a web browser and navigate to http://localhost:8081. You should see the Druid console.
Congratulations, you have successfully installed Druid on your Windows 10 machine!
