it did not resolve my concern NOTE: I am ingesting data using kafka and want to update some records a time partition without overwriting the entire partition

Druid does not support individual row updates directly. It handles data in immutable files within time intervals, Helmar's article shows a mechanism through which you could update a subset of records within a time interval. In the streaming ingestion case, with updates to the "same record", you can use LATEST functions at query time to see the most recent value of a column within a time period and group on the dimensions you would use as the key to your update record.

@anshul srivastava, read through THIS THREAD to see how you can effect updates with reasonable efficiency using mixed segment overshadowing with very small slices of data ...
