The easiest way to run Apache Druid
Accelerate time-to-value and reduce TCO for Druid-powered applications. With Imply, you can focus on projects that matter—we’ll take care of the rest.
Everything you love about Druid, plus so much more
With Imply, you get everything you need to deploy and scale Druid with confidence — a cloud-native service for streaming and batch data ingestion, frequent updates, visualization UI, built-in management, and performance monitoring software, along with 24/7 support and professional services for real-time analytics applications.
-
Analyze real-time and historical data with high concurrency at any scale
Sub-second queries at any scale: Druid’s unique distributed architecture and storage engine delivers consistent sub-second response times for simple to complex (i.e. aggregation, groupby) queries on trillions of rows.
Real-time and historical insights: Druid is built to ingest streaming and batch data. Native integration with Apache Kafka and Amazon Kinesis enables event-by-event ingestion, query-on-arrival, and guaranteed consistency, even when ingesting millions of events per second.
Higher concurrency, lower cost: Druid is designed with a highly-efficient engine that minimizes CPU cycles for queries to support high concurrency at 100s to 1000s of queries per second — at a fraction of the cost of other databases.

Fast-track real-time analytics with a fully managed infrastructure
Peace of mind: Uptime, performance, security, and reliability are paramount for mission-critical analytics. Imply offers flexible cloud deployment options and world-class support to take the angst out of managing open-source software.
Simplified data operations: Opt for our cloud service that deploys instantly, scales effortlessly, and doesn’t require any Druid expertise. Or run Druid yourself anywhere with our commercial distribution. Either way, you'll get advanced management to streamline cluster operations.
Maximum cost savings: Imply’s flexible deployment options and Professional Services are designed to maximize database performance while minimizing costs, helping you lower TCO and accelerate time-to-value for real-time analytics.
Open Source (OSS)
Hybrid, Enterprise, Polaris
Auto-adjust computing and storage resources to accommodate varying workloads, ensuring optimal performance and cost-efficiency.
Ensure continuous operation and minimize downtime through redundant system design.
Provide mechanisms to recover data and operations quickly after catastrophic events.
Avoid data loss by maintaining system functionality even when some components fail.
Auto-detect and repair failures to maintain stability as issues arise (e.g., DNS / ZK issues, resource usage, ingestion spikes).
Imply has zero downtime updates, whereas OSS requires ~1K complex steps to ensure segments are always available for querying.
Druid regularly copies data to secure storage and prevents data loss, but only Imply backs up cluster configuration.
Deploy replicas across multiple availability zones for maximum resilience.
Uphold uptime guarantees and support level commitments.
Access expertise from the original creators of Apache Druid.
Achieve your business outcomes with hands-on engagement.
Ensure efficient handling and querying of data with complex, hierarchical structures
Auto-detect and update data fields and types as data changes (partitioning, clustering available everywhere, strict tables).
Enable data ingestion through simple, user-friendly interfaces
Leverage data governance tools to define, manage, and manipulate data structures for optimized querying.
Instantly upsert new or changed data when streaming from Kafka (no need to run a LATEST aggregation).
Enhance query flexibility by joining data streams: Imply supports single segment lookups (off-heap) and multiple key-value pairs.
Seamless integration with familiar SQL language.
Speed up coding with an integrated development environment.
Seamlessly transition environments for workflow management.
Interactive end-to-end examples with extensive integration capabilities.
Use familiar SQL language for seamless querying and development.
Simplify time-based analysis with interpolation and algebraic functions.
Leverage advanced filtering for spatial data analysis and geolocation tasks.
Query deep storage for up to two years of data to compare trends against real-time data in a single system.
Explore session-based data grouping to speed up ML model training for analysis of user behavior and patterns over time.
