<p>Apache Druid (incubating) supports query result caching at both the segment and whole-query result level. Cache data can be stored in the
local JVM heap or in an external distributed key/value store. In all cases, the Druid cache is a query result cache.
The only difference is whether the result is a <em>partial result</em> for a particular segment, or the result for an entire
query. In both cases, the cache is invalidated as soon as any underlying data changes; it will never return a stale
result.</p>
<p>Segment-level caching allows the cache to be leveraged even when some of the underling segments are mutable and
undergoing real-time ingestion. In this case, Druid will potentially cache query results for immutable historical
segments, while re-computing results for the real-time segments on each query. Whole-query result level caching is not
useful in this scenario, since it would be continuously invalidated.</p>
<p>Segment-level caching does require Druid to merge the per-segment results on each query, even when they are served
from the cache. For this reason, whole-query result level caching can be more efficient if invalidation due to real-time
ingestion is not an issue.</p>

<p>Brokers support both segment-level and whole-query result level caching. Segment-level caching is controlled by the
parameters <code>useCache</code> and <code>populateCache</code>. Whole-query result level caching is controlled by the parameters
<code>useResultLevelCache</code> and <code>populateResultLevelCache</code> and <a href="/docs/0.16.1-incubating/configuration/index.html">runtime properties</a>
<code>druid.broker.cache.*</code>..</p>
<p>Enabling segment-level caching on the Broker can yield faster results than if query caches were enabled on Historicals for small
clusters. This is the recommended setup for smaller production clusters (&lt; 5 servers). Populating segment-level caches on
the Broker is <em>not</em> recommended for large production clusters, since when the property <code>druid.broker.cache.populateCache</code> is
set to <code>true</code> (and query context parameter <code>populateCache</code> is <em>not</em> set to <code>false</code>), results from Historicals are returned
on a per segment basis, and Historicals will not be able to do any local result merging. This impairs the ability of the
Druid cluster to scale well.</p>

<p>Historicals only support segment-level caching. Segment-level caching is controlled by the query context
parameters <code>useCache</code> and <code>populateCache</code> and <a href="/docs/0.16.1-incubating/configuration/index.html">runtime properties</a>
<code>druid.historical.cache.*</code>.</p>
<p>Larger production clusters should enable segment-level cache population on Historicals only (not on Brokers) to avoid
having to use Brokers to merge all query results. Enabling cache population on the Historicals instead of the Brokers
enables the Historicals to do their own local result merging and puts less strain on the Brokers.</p>

<p>Task executor processes such as the Peon or the experimental Indexer only support segment-level caching. Segment-level
caching is controlled by the query context parameters <code>useCache</code> and <code>populateCache</code>
and <a href="../configuration/index.html">runtime properties</a> <code>druid.realtime.cache.*</code>.</p>
<p>Larger production clusters should enable segment-level cache population on task execution processes only
(not on Brokers) to avoid having to use Brokers to merge all query results. Enabling cache population on the
task execution processes instead of the Brokers enables the task execution processes to do their own local
result merging and puts less strain on the Brokers.</p>
<p>Note that the task executor processes only support caches that keep their data locally, such as the <code>caffeine</code> cache.
This restriction exists because the cache stores results at the level of intermediate partial segments generated by the
ingestion tasks. These intermediate partial segments will not necessarily be identical across task replicas, so
remote cache types such as <code>memcached</code> will be ignored by task executor processes.</p>
