Apache Kylin vs Query

Apache Kylin is an open-source OLAP engine for data analytics, designed for large-scale workloads with many concurrent users. Its pre-calculation approach is intended to support sub-second SQL queries. Kylin 5 can build models from SQL text, suggest index changes using query history, and use Apache Gluten as a native compute engine; the product overview describes a 2–4× improvement compared with vanilla Spark. For mixed data workloads, it supports Kafka streaming sources and fusion models for batch and streaming analysis, as well as internal tables for flexible queries and lakehouse scenarios. Teams can connect Tableau, Power BI, or Excel. A web UI supports table management, model design, job execution, and configuration. Deployment offers query, job, or all server modes. Kylin runs on Linux and uses Spark with Yarn or Standalone mode. Data storage can use HDFS or S3-compatible systems, while MySQL or PostgreSQL can hold metadata. The project is free under Apache License v2, with source and binary packages available. APIs use Basic Authentication; HTTPS is supported in Kylin 5 but disabled by default.

Query is a cloud security data mesh that searches distributed security sources without copying their data into a central store. Federated search queries connected systems in parallel and normalizes results to OCSF, while Federated Search Query Language translates general queries into each source’s native language at query time. Query Workers are AI agents that triage, investigate, hunt, and detect across connected sources; analysts review recommendations or inconclusive findings. Federated Detections run SPL, KQL, or Sigma rules where the data resides. Query says it supports more than 50 sources, including Splunk, Microsoft Sentinel, CrowdStrike Falcon, Okta, Snowflake, and Google BigQuery. Static connectors map fixed schemas; dynamic connectors let customers configure custom mappings. Access is read-only, with no ingestion required and data staying at its source. The SaaS product runs on AWS data centers in us-east-1. Single sign-on supports Google, Microsoft, and Okta providers. Query states SOC 2 certification, uses NIST CSF 800-53 as a control baseline, and offers weekday standard support plus paid Platinum support.
