Green-Angry-Bird opened a new issue, #12829:
URL: https://github.com/apache/druid/issues/12829

   ### Description
   
   A configuration option (e.g. `druid.sql.planner.failOnMissingSegments`) that 
when set to true, Druid looks at the segment metadata for the __time specified 
in the query and fails if there's an unavailable realtime segment for that 
datasource. 
   
   ### Motivation
   
   I recognize this isn't a perfect system but realtime ingestion is typically 
ingesting data related to the current time, so if that fails (e.g. a realtime 
segment gets dropped due to failure during handover) then the data that was 
once being returned by queries appears to disappear.  Our users see this as 
**inconsistent/unreliable data and trust in Druid falls**. Our user would 
prefer an error here, something akin to "Data is missing for __time specified"
   
   For additional motivation, if ingestion is failing then reduced load on the 
failing nodes might help. If queries fail before ever hitting ingestion nodes 
this can help reduce load on the failing nodes.
