> Pinot used columnar storage and in-memory buffering. But they also included a new feature: [star-tree indexes](https://docs.pinot.apache.org/basics/indexing/star-tree-index). Star-trees give operators a knob to tune, trading off space for query latency. Though data was stored in columnar files as with Druid, for very fast (single-digit millisecond) reads, data could be partially pre-materialized. Pinot became widely adopted within LinkedIn and Uber for internal business intelligence, user-facing analytics features, log analytics, metrics, and more.
