Pinot Data Explorer

Explore the data on our Pinot cluster

Once you have set up the Cluster, you can start exploring the data and the APIs. Pinot 0.5.0 comes bundled with a completely new UI.

Navigate to http://localhost:9000 in your browser to open the controller UI.

Let's take a look at the following two features on the UI

Query Console

Let us run some queries on the data in the Pinot cluster. Head over to Query Console to see the querying interface.

We can see our baseballStats table listed on the left (you will see meetupRSVP or airlineStats if you used the streaming or the hybrid quick start). Click on the table name to display all the names along with the data types of the columns of the table. You can also execute a sample query select * from baseballStats limit 10 by typing it in the text box and clicking the Run Query button.

Cmd + Enter can also be used to run the query when focused on the console.

You can also try out the following queries:

select playerName, max(hits) 
from baseballStats 
group by playerName 
order by max(hits) desc

select sum(hits), sum(homeRuns), sum(numberOfGames) 
from baseballStats 
where yearID > 2010

select * 
from baseballStats 
order by league

Pinot supports a subset of standard SQL. For more information, see Pinot Query Language.

Rest API

The Pinot Admin UI contains all the APIs that you will need to operate and manage your cluster. It provides a set of APIs for Pinot cluster management including health check, instances management, schema and table management, data segments management.

Let's check out the tables in this cluster by going to Table -> List all tables in cluster and click on Try it out!. We can see thebaseballStats table listed here. We can also see the exactcurl call made to the controller API.

You can look at the configuration of this table by going to Tables -> Get/Enable/Disable/Drop a table, type in baseballStats in the table name, and click Try it out!

Let's check out the schemas in the cluster by going to Schema -> List all schemas in the cluster and click Try it out!. We can see a schema called baseballStats in this list.
