This page describes JSON-based batch ingestion using [ingestion specs](ingestion-spec.md). For SQL-based batch ingestion using the [`druid-multi-stage-query`](../multi-stage-query/index.md) extension, see [SQL-based ingestion](../multi-stage-query/index.md). Refer to the [ingestion methods](../ingestion/index.md#batch) table to determine which ingestion method is right for you.

Apache Druid supports the following types of JSON-based batch indexing tasks:
- Parallel task indexing (`index_parallel`) that can run multiple indexing tasks concurrently. Parallel task works well for production ingestion tasks.
- Simple task indexing (`index`) that run a single indexing task at a time. Simple task indexing is suitable for development and test environments.

To run either kind of JSON-based batch indexing task, you can:
- Use the **Load Data** UI in the web console to define and submit an ingestion spec.
- Define an ingestion spec in JSON based upon the [examples](#parallel-indexing-example) and reference topics for batch indexing. Then POST the ingestion spec to the [Tasks API endpoint](../api-reference/tasks-api.md),
`/druid/indexer/v1/task`, the Overlord service. Alternatively you can use the indexing script included with Druid at `bin/post-index-task`.

## Parallel task indexing
The parallel task type `index_parallel` is a task for multi-threaded batch indexing. Parallel task indexing only relies on Druid resources. It does not depend on other external systems like Hadoop.
The parallel task type `index_parallel` is a task for multi-threaded batch indexing. Parallel task indexing only relies on Druid resources. It doesn't depend on other external systems like Hadoop.
The `index_parallel` task is a supervisor task that orchestrates
the whole indexing process. The supervisor task splits the input data and creates worker tasks to process the individual portions of data.
Druid issues the worker tasks to the Overlord. The overlord schedules and runs the workers on MiddleManagers or Indexers. After a worker task successfully processes the assigned input portion, it reports the resulting segment list to the supervisor task.

The supervisor task periodically checks the status of worker tasks. If a task fails, the supervisor retries the task until the number of retries reaches the configured limit. If all worker tasks succeed, it publishes the reported segments at once and finalizes ingestion.
The Supervisor task periodically checks the status of worker tasks. If a task fails, the Supervisor retries the task until the number of retries reaches the configured limit. If all worker tasks succeed, it publishes the reported segments at once and finalizes ingestion.
The detailed behavior of the parallel task is different depending on the `partitionsSpec`. See [`partitionsSpec`](#partitionsspec) for more details.
Parallel tasks require:
- a splittable [`inputSource`](#splittable-input-sources) in the `ioConfig`. For a list of supported splittable input formats, see [Splittable input sources](#splittable-input-sources).
- the `maxNumConcurrentSubTasks` greater than 1 in the `tuningConfig`. Otherwise tasks run sequentially. The `index_parallel` task reads each input file one by one and creates segments by itself.

### Implementation considerations
This section covers implementation details to consider when you implement parallel task ingestion.
#### Volume control for worker tasks
You can control the amount of input data each worker task processes using different configurations depending on the phase in parallel ingestion.
- See [`partitionsSpec`](#partitionsspec) for details about how partitioning affects data volume for tasks.
- For the tasks that read data from the `inputSource`, you can set the [Split hint spec](#split-hint-spec) in the `tuningConfig`.
- For the task that merge shuffled segments, you can set the `totalNumMergeTasks` in the `tuningConfig`.
See [`partitionsSpec`](#partitionsspec) for details about how partitioning affects data volume for tasks.
For the tasks that read data from the `inputSource`, you can set the [Split hint spec](#split-hint-spec) in the `tuningConfig`.
For the task that merge shuffled segments, you can set the `totalNumMergeTasks` in the `tuningConfig`.
#### Number of running tasks
The `maxNumConcurrentSubTasks` in the `tuningConfig` determines the number of concurrent worker tasks that run in parallel. The supervisor task checks the number of current running worker tasks and creates more if it's smaller than `maxNumConcurrentSubTasks` regardless of the number of available task slots. This may affect to other ingestion performance. See [Capacity planning](#capacity-planning) section for more details.

#### Replacing or appending data
By default, batch ingestion replaces all data in the intervals in your `granularitySpec` for any segment that it writes to. If you want to add to the segment instead, set the `appendToExisting` flag in the `ioConfig`. Batch ingestion only replaces data in segments where it actively adds data. If there are segments in the intervals for your `granularitySpec` that have do not have data from a task, they remain unchanged. If any existing segments partially overlap with the intervals in the `granularitySpec`, the portion of those segments outside the interval for the new spec remain visible.

#### Fully replacing existing segments using tombstones
You can set `dropExisting` flag in the `ioConfig` to true if you want the ingestion task to replace all existing segments that start and end within the intervals for your `granularitySpec`. This applies whether or not the new data covers all existing segments. `dropExisting` only applies when `appendToExisting` is false and the `granularitySpec` contains an `interval`. WARNING: this functionality is still in beta.

This applies whether or not the new data covers all existing segments. `dropExisting` only applies when `appendToExisting` is false and the `granularitySpec` contains an `interval`.
The following examples demonstrate when to set the `dropExisting` property to true in the `ioConfig`:
Consider an existing segment with an interval of 2020-01-01 to 2021-01-01 and `YEAR` `segmentGranularity`. You want to overwrite the whole interval of 2020-01-01 to 2021-01-01 with new data using the finer segmentGranularity of `MONTH`. If the replacement data does not have a record within every months from 2020-01-01 to 2021-01-01 Druid cannot drop the original `YEAR` segment even if it does include all the replacement data. Set `dropExisting` to true in this case to replace the original segment at `YEAR` `segmentGranularity` since you no longer need it.<br /><br />
Imagine you want to re-ingest or overwrite a datasource and the new data does not contain some time intervals that exist in the datasource. For example, a datasource contains the following data at `MONTH` segmentGranularity:

### `dataSchema`
This field is required. In general, it defines the way that Druid will store your data: the primary timestamp column, the dimensions, metrics, and any transformations. For an overview, see [Ingestion Spec DataSchema](../ingestion/ingestion-spec.md#dataschema).

When defining the `granularitySpec` for index parallel, consider the defining `intervals` explicitly if you know the time range of the data. This way locking failure happens faster and Druid won't accidentally replace data outside the interval range some rows contain unexpected timestamps. The reasoning is as follows:
- If you explicitly define `intervals`, batch ingestion locks all intervals specified when it starts up. Problems with locking become evident quickly when multiple ingestion or indexing tasks try to obtain a lock on the same interval. For example, if a Kafka ingestion task tries to obtain a lock on a locked interval causing the ingestion task fail. Furthermore, if there are rows outside the specified intervals, Druid drops them, avoiding conflict with unexpected intervals.
- If you do not define `intervals`, batch ingestion locks each interval when the interval is discovered. In this case if the task overlaps with a higher-priority task, issues with conflicting locks occur later in the ingestion process. Also if the source data includes rows with unexpected timestamps, they may caused unexpected locking of intervals.

### `ioConfig`
|property|description|default|required?|
The following table lists the properties of a `ioConfig` object:
|Property|Description|Default|Required|

|type|The task type. Set to the value to `index_parallel`.|none|yes|
|inputFormat|[`inputFormat`](./data-formats.md#input-format) to specify how to parse input data.|none|yes|
|appendToExisting|Creates segments as additional shards of the latest version, effectively appending to the segment set instead of replacing it. This means that you can append new segments to any datasource regardless of its original partitioning scheme. You must use the `dynamic` partitioning type for the appended segments. If you specify a different partitioning type, the task fails with an error.|false|no|
|dropExisting|If `true` and `appendToExisting` is `false` and the `granularitySpec` contains an`interval`, then the ingestion task replaces all existing segments fully contained by the specified `interval` when the task publishes new segments. If ingestion fails, Druid does not change any existing segment. In the case of misconfiguration where either `appendToExisting` is `true` or `interval` is not specified in `granularitySpec`, Druid does not replace any segments even if `dropExisting` is `true`.

The following table lists the properties of a `tuningConfig` object:
|Property|Description|Default|Required|
|--------|-----------|-------|---------|
|type|The task type. Set the value to`index_parallel`.|none|yes|
|maxRowsInMemory|Determines when Druid should perform intermediate persists to disk. Normally you do not need to set this. Depending on the nature of your data, if rows are short in terms of bytes. For example, you may not want to store a million rows in memory. In this case, set this value.|1000000|no|
|maxBytesInMemory|Use to determine when Druid should perform intermediate persists to disk. Normally Druid computes this internally and you do not need to set it. This value represents number of bytes to aggregate in heap memory before persisting. This is based on a rough estimate of memory usage and not actual usage. The maximum heap memory usage for indexing is maxBytesInMemory * (2 + maxPendingPersists). Note that `maxBytesInMemory` also includes heap usage of artifacts created from intermediary persists. This means that after every persist, the amount of `maxBytesInMemory` until next persist will decrease. Tasks fail when the sum of bytes of all intermediary persisted artifacts exceeds `maxBytesInMemory`.|1/6 of max JVM memory|no|
|maxColumnsToMerge|Limit of the number of segments to merge in a single phase when merging segments for publishing. This limit affects the total number of columns present in a set of segments to merge. If the limit is exceeded, segment merging occurs in multiple phases. Druid merges at least 2 segments per phase, regardless of this setting.|-1 (unlimited)|no|
|maxTotalRows|Deprecated. Use `partitionsSpec` instead. Total number of rows in segments waiting to be pushed. Used to determine when intermediate pushing should occur.|20000000|no|
|numShards|Deprecated. Use `partitionsSpec` instead. Directly specify the number of shards to create when using a `hashed` `partitionsSpec`. If this is specified and `intervals` is specified in the `granularitySpec`, the index task can skip the determine intervals/partitions pass through the data.|null|no|

|indexSpecForIntermediatePersists|Defines segment storage format options to use at indexing time for intermediate persisted temporary segments. You can use this configuration to disable dimension/metric compression on intermediate segments to reduce memory required for final merging. However, if you disable compression on intermediate segments, page cache use my increase while intermediate segments are used before Druid merges them to the final published segment published. See [IndexSpec](./ingestion-spec.md#indexspec) for possible values.|same as indexSpec|no|
|maxPendingPersists|Maximum number of pending persists that remain not started. If a new intermediate persist exceeds this limit, ingestion blocks until the currently-running persist finishes. Maximum heap memory usage for indexing scales with maxRowsInMemory * (2 + maxPendingPersists).|0 (meaning one persist can be running concurrently with ingestion, and none can be queued up)|no|
|forceGuaranteedRollup|Forces [perfect rollup](rollup.md). The perfect rollup optimizes the total size of generated segments and querying time but increases indexing time. If true, specify `intervals` in the `granularitySpec` and use either `hashed` or `single_dim` for the `partitionsSpec`. You cannot use this flag in conjunction with `appendToExisting` of IOConfig.

|maxNumConcurrentSubTasks|Maximum number of worker tasks that can be run in parallel at the same time. The supervisor task spawns worker tasks up to `maxNumConcurrentSubTasks` regardless of the current available task slots. If this value is 1, the supervisor task processes data ingestion on its own instead of spawning worker tasks. If this value is set to too large, the supervisor may create too many worker tasks that block other ingestion tasks. See [Capacity planning](#capacity-planning) for more details.|1|no|

The `partial dimension cardinality` phase is an optional phase that only runs if `numShards` is not specified.
The Parallel task splits the input data and assigns them to worker tasks based on the split hint spec.
Each worker task (type `partial_dimension_cardinality`) gathers estimates of partitioning dimensions cardinality for
each time chunk. The Parallel task will aggregate these estimates from the worker tasks and determine the highest
cardinality across all of the time chunks in the input data, dividing this cardinality by `targetRowsPerSegment` to
automatically determine `numShards`.

In the `partial segment generation` phase, just like the Map phase in MapReduce,

and then by the hash value of `partitionDimensions` (secondary partition key) in the `partitionsSpec`.

The `partial segment merge` phase is similar to the Reduce phase in MapReduce.
The Parallel task spawns a new set of worker tasks (type `partial_index_generic_merge`) to merge the partitioned data created in the previous phase. Here, the partitioned data is shuffled based on
the time chunk and the hash value of `partitionDimensions` to be merged; each worker task reads the data falling in the same time chunk and the same hash value from multiple MiddleManager/Indexer processes and merges them to create the final segments. Finally, they push the final segments to the deep storage at once.

With `single-dim` partitioning, the Parallel task runs in 3 phases,
i.e., `partial dimension distribution`, `partial segment generation`, and `partial segment merge`.
The first phase is to collect some statistics to find
the best partitioning and the other 2 phases are to create partial segments
and to merge them, respectively, as in hash-based partitioning.

In the `partial dimension distribution` phase, the Parallel task splits the input data and
assigns them to worker tasks based on the split hint spec. Each worker task (type `partial_dimension_distribution`) reads
the assigned split and builds a histogram for `partitionDimension`.
The Parallel task collects those histograms from worker tasks and finds
the best range partitioning based on `partitionDimension` to evenly
