# 10-Minute Quickstart

Run a complete Pinot cluster with sample data in under 10 minutes.

## Outcome

By the end of this guide you will have a fully functional Apache Pinot cluster running locally with sample data loaded, ready to query.

## Prerequisites

* [Docker](https://docs.docker.com/get-docker/) installed and running
* Recommended resources: 8 CPUs, 16 GB RAM

## Steps

**1. Set the Pinot version**

```bash
export PINOT_VERSION=1.5.1
```

See the [Version reference](/start-here/pinot-versions.md) page for the current stable release.

**2. Start Pinot with sample data**

```bash
docker run \
    -p 2123:2123 \
    -p 9000:9000 \
    -p 8000:8000 \
    -p 7050:7050 \
    -p 6000:6000 \
    apachepinot/pinot:${PINOT_VERSION} QuickStart \
    -type batch
```

This single command starts ZooKeeper, Controller, Broker, Server, and Minion, then loads a baseball statistics dataset.

## Verify

1. Open the Pinot Query Console at <http://localhost:9000>.
2. Run a sample query:

```sql
SELECT playerName, sum(runs) AS totalRuns
FROM baseballStats
GROUP BY playerName
ORDER BY totalRuns DESC
LIMIT 10
```

You should see results returned within milliseconds.

## Next step

This quickstart bundles everything in a single process for convenience. For a list of all available quickstart types (batch, streaming, hybrid, and more), see [Quick Start Examples](/start-here/quick-start.md).

Ready for a production-style setup? Continue to [Install / deploy](/start-here/install.md).

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.pinot.apache.org/start-here/ten-minute-quickstart.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
