How to Install Druid on NetBSD
Druid is an open-source analytics data store designed for high-performance slice-and-dice analytics on large data sets. This tutorial will guide you on how to install Druid on NetBSD.
Before we proceed, make sure that you have the following prerequisites:
- A NetBSD machine with root access
- Java 8 or later installed
- Python 2.7 or later installed
Step 1 - Install Dependencies
Druid requires some dependencies to be installed before it can be installed on NetBSD. Run the following command to install the required dependencies:
$ pkgin update
$ pkgin install bash curl tar unzip gzip zip rsync
Step 2 - Download and Extract Druid
Download the latest version of Druid from the official website http://druid.io/ or use the following command to download it:
$ curl -O https://downloads.apache.org/druid/0.20.0/apache-druid-0.20.0-bin.tar.gz
Next, extract the downloaded file using the following command:
$ tar -xvf apache-druid-0.20.0-bin.tar.gz
Step 3 - Configure Druid
Next, you need to configure Druid by modifying some configuration files. Change into the extracted directory using the following command:
$ cd apache-druid-0.20.0
Now, edit the conf/druid/_common/common.runtime.properties file and modify the following properties:
druid.zk.service.host=localhost:2181
druid.metadata.storage.type=zookeeper
druid.metadata.storage.connector.host=localhost:2181
Next, edit the conf/druid/broker/runtime.properties file and modify the following properties:
druid.service=druid/broker
druid.port=8080
druid.server.maxSize=100000000
druid.broker.cache.useCache=false
druid.broker.cache.populateCache=false
druid.broker.cache.populateEntireCacheOnStartup=false
Finally, edit the conf/druid/cluster/runtime.properties file and modify the following properties:
druid.service=druid/cluster
druid.cluster.type=local
Step 4 - Start Druid
You can start Druid using the following command:
$ ./bin/start-micro-quickstart
This will start Druid with the default configuration. You can access the Druid console by opening the following URL in your browser:
http://localhost:8081/
