Apache Drill is a Schema-free SQL Query Engine for Hadoop, NoSQL and Cloud Storage. The major highlights of Apache Drill are:
1. Agility: Get faster insights without the overhead (data loading, schema creation and maintenance, transformations, etc.)
2. Flexibility: Analyze the multi-structured and nested data in non-relational datastores directly without transforming or restricting the data
3. Familiarity: Leverage your existing SQL skillsets and BI tools including Tableau, Qlikview, MicroStrategy, Spotfire, Excel and more
Apache Drill can scale upto 1000s of servers, and is very high performant because of the way it is architected. This course not only covers how to use Drill to connect and query different data sources, but also explains the functioning of Drill and why it beats query engines like Spark, Presto and Impala.
Drill is a go-to tool for interactive Data Exploration. With its capability to connect seamlessly to any data store, and schema-free data exploration, it has become a go-to tool in the analyst's toolkit. Drill uses ANSI SQL for querying, and treats every data like a table, even if it is not, making it very easy to use for querying purposes.
