The input source defines where your index task reads data for Apache Druid native batch ingestion. Only the native parallel task and simple task support the input source.
For general information on native batch indexing and parallel task indexing, see Native batch ingestion.
S3 input source
You need to include the
druid-s3-extensions
as an extension to use the S3 input source.
The S3 input source reads objects directly from S3. You can specify either:
- a list of S3 URI strings
- a list of S3 location prefixes that attempts to list the contents and ingest all objects contained within the locations.
The S3 input source is splittable. Therefore, you can use it with the Parallel task. Each worker task of index_parallel
reads one or multiple objects.

HDFS input source
You need to include the
druid-hdfs-storage
as an extension to use the HDFS input source.
The HDFS input source is to support reading files directly
from HDFS storage. File paths can be specified as an HDFS URI string or a list
of HDFS URI strings. The HDFS input source is splittable and can be used by the Parallel task,
where each worker task of index_parallel
will read one or multiple files.
Sample specs:
...
"ioConfig": {
"type": "index_parallel",
"inputSource": {
"type": "hdfs",
"paths": "hdfs://namenode_host/foo/bar/", "hdfs://namenode_host/bar/foo"
},
"inputFormat": {
"type": "json"
},
...
},
...
...
"ioConfig": {

},
...
},
...
...
"ioConfig": {
"type": "index_parallel",

},
"inputFormat": {
"type": "json"
},
...
},
...
Property | Description | Default | Required |
---|---|---|---|
type | Set the value to hdfs . |
None | yes |
paths | HDFS paths. Can be either a JSON array or comma-separated string of paths. Wildcards like * are supported in these paths. Empty files located under one of the given paths will be skipped. |
None | yes |
You can also ingest from other storage using the HDFS input source if the HDFS client supports that storage.
However, if you want to ingest from cloud storage, consider using the service-specific input source for your data storage.
If you want to use a non-hdfs protocol with the HDFS input source, include the protocol
in druid.ingestion.hdfs.allowedProtocols
. See HDFS input source security configuration for more details.
HTTP input source
The HTTP input source is to support reading files directly from remote sites via HTTP.
Security notes: Ingestion tasks run under the operating system account that runs the Druid processes, for example the Indexer, Middle Manager, and Peon. This means any user who can submit an ingestion task can specify an input source referring to any location that the Druid process can access. For example, using
http
input source, users may have access to internal network servers.The
http
input source is not limited to the HTTP or HTTPS protocols. It uses the Java URI class that supports HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, file, and jar protocols by default.
For more information about security best practices, see Security overview.
The HTTP input source is splittable and can be used by the Parallel task,
where each worker task of index_parallel
will read only one file. This input source does not support Split Hint Spec.
Sample specs:
...
"ioConfig": {
"type": "index_parallel",
"inputSource": {
"type": "http",
"uris": ["http://example.com/uri1", "http://example2.com/uri2"]
},
"inputFormat": {
"type": "json"
},
...
},
...
Example with authentication fields using the DefaultPassword provider (this requires the password to be in the ingestion spec):
...
"ioConfig": {
"type": "index_parallel",
"inputSource": {
"type": "http",
"uris": ["http://example.com/uri1", "http://example2.com/uri2"],
"httpAuthenticationUsername": "username",
"httpAuthenticationPassword": "password123"
},
"inputFormat": {
"type": "json"
},
...
},
...
You can also use the other existing Druid PasswordProviders. Here is an example using the EnvironmentVariablePasswordProvider:
...
"ioConfig": {
"type": "index_parallel",
"inputSource": {
"type": "http",
"uris": ["http://example.com/uri1", "http://example2.com/uri2"],
"httpAuthenticationUsername": "username",
"httpAuthenticationPassword": {
"type": "environment",
"variable": "HTTP_INPUT_SOURCE_PW"
}
},
"inputFormat": {
"type": "json"
},
...
},
...
}
Property | Description | Default | Required |
---|---|---|---|
type | Set the value to http . |
None | yes |
uris | URIs of the input files. See below for the protocols allowed for URIs. | None | yes |
httpAuthenticationUsername | Username to use for authentication with specified URIs. Can be optionally used if the URIs specified in the spec require a Basic Authentication Header. | None | no |
httpAuthenticationPassword | PasswordProvider to use with specified URIs. Can be optionally used if the URIs specified in the spec require a Basic Authentication Header. | None | no |
You can only use protocols listed in the druid.ingestion.http.allowedProtocols
property as HTTP input sources.
The http
and https
protocols are allowed by default. See HTTP input source security configuration for more details.
Inline input source
The Inline input source can be used to read the data inlined in its own spec. It can be used for demos or for quickly testing out parsing and schema.
Sample spec:
...
"ioConfig": {
"type": "index_parallel",
"inputSource": {
"type": "inline",
"data": "0,values,formatted\n1,as,CSV"
},
"inputFormat": {
"type": "csv"
},
...
},
...
Property | Description | Required |
---|---|---|
type | Set the value to inline . |
yes |
data | Inlined data to ingest. | yes |
Local input source
The Local input source is to support reading files directly from local storage,
and is mainly intended for proof-of-concept testing.
The Local input source is splittable and can be used by the Parallel task,
where each worker task of index_parallel
will read one or multiple files.
Sample spec:
...
"ioConfig": {
"type": "index_parallel",
"inputSource": {
"type": "local",
"filter" : "*.csv",
"baseDir": "/data/directory",
"files": ["/bar/foo", "/foo/bar"]
},
"inputFormat": {
"type": "csv"
},
...
},
...
Property | Description | Required |
---|---|---|
type | Set the value to local . |
yes |
filter | A wildcard filter for files. See here for more information. Files matching the filter criteria are considered for ingestion. Files not matching the filter criteria are ignored. | yes if baseDir is specified |
baseDir | Directory to search recursively for files to be ingested. Empty files under the baseDir will be skipped. |
At least one of baseDir or files should be specified |
files | File paths to ingest. Some files can be ignored to avoid ingesting duplicate files if they are located under the specified baseDir . Empty files will be skipped. |
At least one of baseDir or files should be specified |
Druid input source
The Druid input source is to support reading data directly from existing Druid segments,
potentially using a new schema and changing the name, dimensions, metrics, rollup, etc. of the segment.
The Druid input source is splittable and can be used by the Parallel task.
This input source has a fixed input format for reading from Druid segments;
no inputFormat
field needs to be specified in the ingestion spec when using this input source.
Property | Description | Required |
---|---|---|
type | Set the value to druid . |
yes |
dataSource | A String defining the Druid datasource to fetch rows from | yes |
interval | A String representing an ISO-8601 interval, which defines the time range to fetch the data over. | yes |
filter | See Filters. Only rows that match the filter, if specified, will be returned. | no |
The Druid input source can be used for a variety of purposes, including:
- Creating new datasources that are rolled-up copies of existing datasources.
- Changing the partitioning or sorting of a datasource to improve performance.
- Updating or removing rows using a
transformSpec
.
When using the Druid input source, the timestamp column shows up as a numeric field named __time
set to the number
of milliseconds since the epoch (January 1, 1970 00:00:00 UTC). It is common to use this in the timestampSpec, if you
want the output timestamp to be equivalent to the input timestamp. In this case, set the timestamp column to __time
and the format to auto
or millis
.
It is OK for the input and output datasources to be the same. In this case, newly generated data will overwrite the
previous data for the intervals specified in the granularitySpec
. Generally, if you are going to do this, it is a good
idea to test out your reindexing by writing to a separate datasource before overwriting your main one. Alternatively, if
your goals can be satisfied by compaction, consider that instead as a simpler
approach.
An example task spec is shown below. It reads from a hypothetical raw datasource wikipedia_raw
and creates a new
rolled-up datasource wikipedia_rollup
by grouping on hour, "countryName", and "page".
{
"type": "index_parallel",
"spec": {
"dataSchema": {
"dataSource": "wikipedia_rollup",
"timestampSpec": {
"column": "__time",
"format": "millis"
},
"dimensionsSpec": {
"dimensions": [
"countryName",
"page"
]
},
"metricsSpec": [
{
"type": "count",
"name": "cnt"
}
],
"granularitySpec": {
"type": "uniform",
"queryGranularity": "HOUR",
"segmentGranularity": "DAY",
"intervals": ["2016-06-27/P1D"],
"rollup": true
}
},
"ioConfig": {
"type": "index_parallel",
"inputSource": {
"type": "druid",
"dataSource": "wikipedia_raw",
"interval": "2016-06-27/P1D"
}
},
"tuningConfig": {
"type": "index_parallel",
"partitionsSpec": {
"type": "hashed"
},
"forceGuaranteedRollup": true,
"maxNumConcurrentSubTasks": 1
}
}
}
Note: Older versions (0.19 and earlier) did not respect the timestampSpec when using the Druid input source. If you have ingestion specs that rely on this and cannot rewrite them, set
druid.indexer.task.ignoreTimestampSpecForDruidInputSource
totrue
to enable a compatibility mode where the timestampSpec is ignored.
SQL input source
The SQL input source is used to read data directly from RDBMS.
The SQL input source is splittable and can be used by the Parallel task, where each worker task will read from one SQL query from the list of queries.
This input source does not support Split Hint Spec.
Since this input source has a fixed input format for reading events, no inputFormat
field needs to be specified in the ingestion spec when using this input source.
Please refer to the Recommended practices section below before using this input source.
Property | Description | Required |
---|---|---|
type | Set the value to sql . |
Yes |
database | Specifies the database connection details. The database type corresponds to the extension that supplies the connectorConfig support. The specified extension must be loaded into Druid:
You can selectively allow JDBC properties in connectURI . See JDBC connections security config for more details. |
Yes |
foldCase | Toggle case folding of database column names. This may be enabled in cases where the database returns case insensitive column names in query results. | No |
sqls | List of SQL queries where each SQL query would retrieve the data to be indexed. | Yes |
The following is an example of an SQL input source spec:
...
"ioConfig": {
"type": "index_parallel",
"inputSource": {
"type": "sql",
"database": {
"type": "mysql",
"connectorConfig": {
"connectURI": "jdbc:mysql://host:port/schema",
"user": "user",
"password": "password"
}
},
"sqls": ["SELECT * FROM table1 WHERE timestamp BETWEEN '2013-01-01 00:00:00' AND '2013-01-01 11:59:59'", "SELECT * FROM table2 WHERE timestamp BETWEEN '2013-01-01 00:00:00' AND '2013-01-01 11:59:59'"]
}
},
...
The spec above will read all events from two separate SQLs for the interval 2013-01-01/2013-01-02
.
Each of the SQL queries will be run in its own sub-task and thus for the above example, there would be two sub-tasks.
Recommended practices
Compared to the other native batch input sources, SQL input source behaves differently in terms of reading the input data. Therefore, consider the following points before using this input source in a production environment:
-
During indexing, each sub-task would execute one of the SQL queries and the results are stored locally on disk. The sub-tasks then proceed to read the data from these local input files and generate segments. Presently, there isn’t any restriction on the size of the generated files and this would require the MiddleManagers or Indexers to have sufficient disk capacity based on the volume of data being indexed.
-
Filtering the SQL queries based on the intervals specified in the
granularitySpec
can avoid unwanted data being retrieved and stored locally by the indexing sub-tasks. For example, if theintervals
specified in thegranularitySpec
is["2013-01-01/2013-01-02"]
and the SQL query isSELECT * FROM table1
,SqlInputSource
will read all the data fortable1
based on the query, even though only data between the intervals specified will be indexed into Druid. -
Pagination may be used on the SQL queries to ensure that each query pulls a similar amount of data, thereby improving the efficiency of the sub-tasks.
-
Similar to file-based input formats, any updates to existing data will replace the data in segments specific to the intervals specified in the
granularitySpec
.
Combining input source
The Combining input source lets you read data from multiple input sources. It identifies the splits from delegate input sources and uses a worker task to process each split. Use the Combining input source only if all the delegates are splittable and can be used by the Parallel task.
Similar to other input sources, the Combining input source supports a single inputFormat
.
Delegate input sources that require an inputFormat
must have the same format for input data.
Property | Description | Required |
---|---|---|
type | Set the value to combining . |
Yes |
delegates | List of splittable input sources to read data from. | Yes |
The following is an example of a Combining input source spec:
...
"ioConfig": {
"type": "index_parallel",
"inputSource": {
"type": "combining",
"delegates" : [
{
"type": "local",
"filter" : "*.csv",
"baseDir": "/data/directory",
"files": ["/bar/foo", "/foo/bar"]
},
{
"type": "druid",
"dataSource": "wikipedia",
"interval": "2013-01-01/2013-01-02"
}
]
},
"inputFormat": {
"type": "csv"
},
...
},
...
The secondary partitioning method determines the requisite number of concurrent worker tasks that run in parallel to complete ingestion with the Combining input source.
Set this value in maxNumConcurrentSubTasks
in tuningConfig
based on the secondary partitioning method:
range
orsingle_dim
partitioning: greater than or equal to 1hashed
ordynamic
partitioning: greater than or equal to 2
For more information on the maxNumConcurrentSubTasks
field, see Implementation considerations.
