This quick start guide will help you bootstrap a Pinot standalone instance on your local machine.

Running Pinot locally

In this guide, you'll learn how to download and install Apache Pinot as a standalone instance.

Download Apache Pinot

First, let's download the Pinot distribution for this tutorial. You can either download a packaged release or build a distribution from the source code.

{% hint style="info" %} Prerequisites

Install JDK11 or higher (JDK16 is not yet supported)
For JDK 8 support use Pinot 0.7.1 or compile from the source code. {% endhint %}

You can build from source or download the distribution:

{% tabs %} {% tab title="Download the release" %} Download the latest binary release from Apache Pinot, or use this command

PINOT_VERSION=0.10.0 #set to the Pinot version you decide to use

wget https://downloads.apache.org/pinot/apache-pinot-$PINOT_VERSION/apache-pinot-$PINOT_VERSION-bin.tar.gz

Once you have the tar file,

# untar it
tar -zxvf apache-pinot-$PINOT_VERSION-bin.tar.gz

# navigate to directory containing the launcher scripts
cd apache-pinot-$PINOT_VERSION-bin

{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Build from source " %} Follow these steps to checkout code from Github and build Pinot locally

{% hint style="info" %} Prerequisites

Install Apache Maven 3.6 or higher {% endhint %}

# checkout pinot
git clone https://github.com/apache/pinot.git
cd pinot

# build pinot
mvn install package -DskipTests -Pbin-dist

# navigate to directory containing the setup scripts
cd build

{% hint style="info" %} Add maven option -Djdk.version=8 when building with JDK 8 {% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %} Note that Pinot scripts is located under pinot-distribution/target not target directory under root. {% endhint %} {% endtab %} {% endtabs %}

M1 Mac Support

Currently Apache Pinot doesn't provide official binaries for M1 Mac. You can however build from source using the steps provided above. In addition to the steps, you will need to add the following in your ~/.m2/settings.xml prior to the build.

<settings>
  <activeProfiles>
    <activeProfile>
      apple-silicon
    </activeProfile>
  </activeProfiles>
  <profiles>
    <profile>
      <id>apple-silicon</id>
      <properties>
        <os.detected.classifier>osx-x86_64</os.detected.classifier>
      </properties>
    </profile>
  </profiles>
</settings>

Also make sure to install rosetta

softwareupdate --install-rosetta

Now that we've downloaded Pinot, it's time to set up a cluster. There are two ways to do this:

Quick Start

Pinot comes with quick-start commands that launch instances of Pinot components in the same process and import pre-built datasets.

For example, the following quick-start launches Pinot with a baseball dataset pre-loaded:

./bin/pinot-admin.sh QuickStart -type batch

For a list of all the available quick starts, see the Quick Start Examples.

Manual Cluster

If you want to play with bigger datasets (more than a few MB), you can launch all the components individually.

The video below is a step-by-step walk through for launching the individual components of Pinot and scaling them to multiple instances.

{% embed url="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cNnwMF0pOJ8" %} Neha Pawar from the Apache Pinot team shows you how to setup a Pinot cluster {% endembed %}

You can find the commands that are shown in this video in the github.com/npawar/pinot-tutorial GitHub repository.

{% hint style="info" %} The examples below assume that you are using Java 8.

If you are using Java 11+ users, remove the GC settings insideJAVA_OPTS. So, for example, instead of:

export JAVA_OPTS="-Xms4G -Xmx8G -XX:+UseG1GC -XX:MaxGCPauseMillis=200 -Xloggc:gc-pinot-controller.log"

You'd have:

export JAVA_OPTS="-Xms4G -Xmx8G"

{% endhint %}

Start Zookeeper

./bin/pinot-admin.sh StartZookeeper \
  -zkPort 2191

You can use Zooinspector to browse the Zookeeper instance.

Start Pinot Controller

export JAVA_OPTS="-Xms4G -Xmx8G -XX:+UseG1GC -XX:MaxGCPauseMillis=200 -Xloggc:gc-pinot-controller.log"
./bin/pinot-admin.sh StartController \
    -zkAddress localhost:2191 \
    -controllerPort 9000

Start Pinot Broker

export JAVA_OPTS="-Xms4G -Xmx4G -XX:+UseG1GC -XX:MaxGCPauseMillis=200 -Xloggc:gc-pinot-broker.log"
./bin/pinot-admin.sh StartBroker \
    -zkAddress localhost:2191

Start Pinot Server

export JAVA_OPTS="-Xms4G -Xmx16G -XX:+UseG1GC -XX:MaxGCPauseMillis=200 -Xloggc:gc-pinot-server.log"
./bin/pinot-admin.sh StartServer \
    -zkAddress localhost:2191

Start Kafka

./bin/pinot-admin.sh  StartKafka \ 
  -zkAddress=localhost:2191/kafka \
  -port 19092

Once your cluster is up and running, you can head over to Exploring Pinot to learn how to run queries against the data.
