Druid was built from the ground up to be distributed. It means there is some work to set it up, but once you do, it scales horizontally very easily. Bonus points if you run it on something like mesos making it quite easy to deal with (we do).

etc. They redid their clustering a few times and the 3rd time around made it closed source. Note that $employer also sues influx for data that we are ok with losing ie: metrics. If the data has a low amount of dimensions, influx is faster than druids. However, if you have 3+ dimensions, druid spanks the pants off of influx by nature of distributing the computation better.
