The Rise of Immediate Intelligence

Abstract of the talk:
Apache Druid is a new type of database that enables the creation of next-generation analytics applications that in turn maximize flexible exploration over fresh, fast-arriving data. In this talk, Sergio Ferragut (Developer Advocate in Imply's Community Team) introduces these new ‘immediate intelligence’ applications, tells the story of Druid's emergence, and describes how data pipelines built with Druid differ from those you may already be familiar with.
