Install Pinot

In this guide you'll learn how to install Apache Pinot on your local machine.

Pinot can be installed directly on your machine from a binary file or using the Brew package manager. It is also available via Docker. Instructions for each option are described below:

With Docker

To install Docker, see Get Docker (opens in a new tab).
To pull the Docker image onto your machine, run the following command:

   docker pull apachepinot/pinot:1.0.0

With Brew

Pinot can also be installed on Mac OS using the Brew package manager. For instructions on installing Brew, see the Brew documentation (opens in a new tab).

brew install pinot

With Launcher Scripts

Download the latest binary release from pinot.apache.org/download (opens in a new tab) or run the following command from the terminal:

Download Pinot

PINOT_VERSION=1.0.0
wget https://downloads.apache.org/pinot/apache-pinot-$PINOT_VERSION/apache-pinot-$PINOT_VERSION-bin.tar.gz

⚠️

Pinot requires JDK11 or higher (JDK16 is not yet supported).

Once you have the tar file:

Untar it

tar -zxvf apache-pinot-$PINOT_VERSION-bin.tar.gz

Navigate to directory containing launcher scripts

cd apache-pinot-$PINOT_VERSION-bin
