## Druid
Druid is a distributed, column-oriented, real-time analytics data store that is
commonly used to power exploratory dashboards in multi-tenant environments.
Druid excels as a data warehousing solution for fast aggregate queries on
petabyte sized data sets. Druid supports a variety of flexible filters, exact
calculations, approximate algorithms, and other tools commonly found in the
business intelligence space. Druid can load both streaming and batch data.
