Question

how to do aggregation query with pagination in druid(Druid is a column-oriented, distributed data store). Does it support query with offset?
I have searched but did not get anything so posting here. Thanks in advance.

Yes you can do pagination with select queries. See below druid documentation link for details - http://druid.io/docs/latest/querying/select-query.html
eg. you can send below query -
{
"queryType": "select",
"dataSource": "wikipedia",
"descending": "false",
"dimensions":[],
"metrics":[],
"granularity": "all",
"intervals": [
"2013-01-01/2013-01-02"
],
"pagingSpec":{"pagingIdentifiers": {}, "threshold":5}
}
Result -
[{
"timestamp" : "2013-01-01T00:00:00.000Z",
"result" : {
"pagingIdentifiers" : {
"wikipedia_2012-12-29T00:00:00.000Z_2013-01-10T08:00:00.000Z_2013-01-10T08:13:47.830Z_v9" : 4

} ]
}
} ]
Result comes with pagingIdentifiers which you can pass in next query.
Please note it doesn't work with top N queries as of now.
Update -
For top N queries or aggregated results, there is currently no direct way of fetching paginated results, but you can use bigger threshold and limits and exclude the previous results at client side.
