doc987 opened a new issue #6004: Automatically Determine Ingestion Schema URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-druid/issues/6004 Druid should be able to automatically determine the schema to use when the schema is implied by the data received. Suppose data is being provided by a collection agent such as Collectd or Telegraf. The specific fields that will be present may not be know ahead of time, will depend on which metrics are collected by those agents, and could change across software versions. However, Druid should still be able to locate the timestamp, dimensions, and metrics. For example, the Telegraf output formats are documented here: https://github.com/influxdata/telegraf/blob/master/docs/DATA_FORMATS_OUTPUT.md. Due to the structure, InfluxDB does not need to be pre-provided with a schema in order to load the data. The Collectd ouput format documentation is less clear. Format options include PUTVAL, JSON, and Graphite. https://collectd.org/wiki/index.php/Table_of_Plugins Is there a way to ingest this kind of data without trying to determine every possible field that could be collected for every possible unit that was monitored, and then writing a corrsponding ingestion schema? The exercise would also have to be repeated every time there was a software version change.
