+## SYSTEM SCHEMA

+The SYS schema provides visibility into Druid segments, servers and tasks.
+For example to retrieve all segments for datasource "wikipedia", use the query:
+```sql
+SELECT * FROM sys.segments WHERE datasource = 'wikipedia'
+```
+
+### SEGMENTS table
+Segments table provides details on all Druid segments, whether they are 
published yet or not.

+|Column|Notes|
+|------|-----|
+|segment_id|Unique segment identifier|
+|datasource|Name of datasource|
+|start|Interval start time (in ISO 8601 format)|
+|end|Interval end time (in ISO 8601 format)|
+|size|Size of segment in bytes|
+|version|Version number (generally an ISO8601 timestamp corresponding to when 
the segment set was first started)|
+|partition_num|Partition number (an integer, unique within a 
datasource+interval+version; may not necessarily be contiguous)|

 Review comment:
   It does support concatenating, but I think we should keep this here. It's 
basically the primary key of the server table, and is used for joins with the 
segment_servers table. The other fields (host, plaintext_port, etc) are 
provided too as conveniences. With system tables, since they're all generated 
dynamically anyway, it's ok to have some redundancy when it makes the user 
experience more convenient.
