index_realtime tasks were removed from the documentation in #13107. Even
at that time, they weren't really documented per se— just mentioned. They
existed solely to support Tranquility, which is an obsolete ingestion
method that predates migration of Druid to ASF and is no longer being
maintained. Tranquility docs were also de-linked from the sidebars and
the other doc pages in #11134. Only a stub remains, so people with
links to the page can see that it's no longer recommended.
index_realtime_appenderator tasks existed in the code base, but were
never documented, nor as far as I am aware were they used for any purpose.
This patch removes both task types completely, as well as removes all
supporting code that was otherwise unused. It also updates the stub
doc for Tranquility to be firmer that it is not compatible. (Previously,
the stub doc said it wasn't recommended, and pointed out that it is
built against an ancient 0.9.2 version of Druid.)
ITUnionQueryTest has been migrated to the new integration tests framework and updated to use Kafka ingestion.
