Apache Druid content roadmap
The content roadmap provides links to the available content resources for Apache Druid (incubating). The hyperlinks in the table and many others throughout this documentation jump to content published on the Druid site. Do not download any Druid code from this site for installation in an HDP cluster. Instead, install Druit by selecting Druid as a Service in an Ambari-asssisted HDP installation.
