Hi Nicolas,

Of course we supports predicates pushdown.
IndexR implements a special index so called Rough Set Index, which is very 
suitable for statistic queries. It can effectively filter out those irrelevant 
data chunks and cost very little comparing to other index form. The idea is 
original comes from Infobright (ICE). I'm sure you can find many useful links 
by google with “infobright rough set”. In some aspects you can think IndexR as 
another Infobright which is open source, distributed, on Hadoop and realtime 
ingest supported.

It does not. Those job should be done by query layer, i.e. Drill. 
But we did hope Drill can support aggregation push down, which can really speed 
up queries in the cases like “select count(*), sum(a), max(b) form table"

We are not very familiar with Impala, Presto. But we did tried Spark. We didn’t 
choose Spark because at that time, early 2016, Spark’s API for scanner is not 
stable enough, and we need the processes running on local machines, instead of 
running on Yarn. And most of all, we love Drill for its stability, efficiency, 
simplicity, and the nice interface for storage plugin.
