RisingWave is a streaming system, while Apache Pinot is an OLAP system.
OLAP systems like Pinot perform batch processing and answer ad-hoc queries.
Streaming systems like RisingWave do incremental processing and answer pre-defined queries.
RisingWave has integration with Pinot for leveraging the strengths of both systems.
