| <p>Apache Druid (incubating) supports two query languages: <a href="/docs/latest/querying/sql.html">Druid SQL</a> and native queries. Druid SQL |
| queries are planned into native queries. This document describes the native query language.</p> |
| </blockquote> |
| <p>Native queries in Druid are JSON objects and are typically issued to the Broker or Router processes. Queries can be |
| posted like this:</p> |
| <pre><code class="hljs css language-bash">curl -X POST <span class="hljs-string">'<queryable_host>:<port>/druid/v2/?pretty'</span> -H <span class="hljs-string">'Content-Type:application/json'</span> -H <span class="hljs-string">'Accept:application/json'</span> -d @<query_json_file> |
| </code></pre> |
| <p>Druid's native query language is JSON over HTTP, although many members of the community have contributed different |
| <a href="/libraries.html">client libraries</a> in other languages to query Druid.</p> |
| <p>The Content-Type/Accept Headers can also take 'application/x-jackson-smile'.</p> |
| <pre><code class="hljs css language-bash">curl -X POST <span class="hljs-string">'<queryable_host>:<port>/druid/v2/?pretty'</span> -H <span class="hljs-string">'Content-Type:application/json'</span> -H <span class="hljs-string">'Accept:application/x-jackson-smile'</span> -d @<query_json_file> |
| </code></pre> |
| <p>Note: If Accept header is not provided, it defaults to value of 'Content-Type' header.</p> |
| <p>Druid's native query is relatively low level, mapping closely to how computations are performed internally. Druid queries |
| are designed to be lightweight and complete very quickly. This means that for more complex analysis, or to build |
| more complex visualizations, multiple Druid queries may be required.</p> |
| <p>Even though queries are typically made to Brokers or Routers, they can also be accepted by |
| <a href="/docs/latest/design/historical.html">Historical</a> processes and by <a href="/docs/latest/design/peons.html">Peons (task JVMs)</a>) that are running |
| stream ingestion tasks. This may be valuable if you want to query results for specific segments that are served by |
| specific processes.</p> |

| <p>Where possible, we recommend using <a href="">Timeseries</a> and <a href="">TopN</a> queries instead of <a href="">GroupBy</a>. GroupBy is the most flexible Druid query, but also has the poorest performance. |
| Timeseries are significantly faster than groupBy queries for aggregations that don't require grouping over dimensions. For grouping and sorting over a single dimension, |
| topN queries are much more optimized than groupBys.</p> |

| <p>Queries can be cancelled explicitly using their unique identifier. If the |

| <pre><code class="hljs css language-sh">DELETE /druid/v2/{queryId} |
| </code></pre> |
| <p>For example, if the query ID is <code>abc123</code>, the query can be cancelled as follows:</p> |
