Seamless ANSI SQL Across Fragmented Data with Open Table Format Support

The ability to run standard ANSI SQL across fragmented environments without needing dedicated data pipelines. Seamless support for open table formats like Apache Iceberg and Delta Lake without vendor lock-in.

Flexible SQL Queries Across Multiple Data Sources with Starburst

What I like best about Starburst is the ability to query data from multiple sources using familiar SQL, without having to move everything into one central database first. Its wide range of connectors makes it easier to access and combine data across different systems. This flexibility simplifies analysis and reduces the need for separate data pipelines just to bring information together.

Powerful Cross-Source Analytics, with Setup Hurdles

I like being able to query data across multiple sources without moving everything into one place. Starburst’s SQL compatibility makes it easy to work with, especially for developers familiar with SQL, and its distributed query execution, data source connectors, and query optimization help me access databases and data lakes through one SQL interface. I appreciate its query performance, scalability, and integration with different data sources and analytics tools. Its query engine handles large datasets efficiently, reduces data movement, and makes data access and analytics workflows faster and easier to manage. The documentation was helpful, and once setup was complete, integrating Starburst into our existing workflow became much easier.

What is Starburst?

Starburst was founded by the inventors of OS Trino so that data-driven companies could have a full-featured open data lakehouse platform powered by the #1 SQL analytics engine. Our end-to-end analytics platform includes the capabilities needed to discover, organize, consume, and share data with industry-leading price-performance for cloud and on-premises workloads. We believe the lakehouse should be the center of gravity, but support accessing data outside the lake when needed. With Starburst, teams can access more complete data, run scalable analytics, lower the cost of infrastructure, use tools best suited to their needs, and avoid vendor lock-in. Trusted by companies like Apache Corporation, Comcast, Doordash, DBS Bank, and VMware, Starburst helps you make better decisions faster on all data.Join us! -- Our company was founded in an unusual way; with customers and revenue from the beginning! Our growth is already ahead of some of the most successful software start-ups, and we don’t plan on slowing down.We believe our opportunity is huge. Every large company in the world suffers from a data silo problem. Traditional data warehouse products approach the problem with old solutions that breed inefficiency and ultimately can’t help business analysts run fast analytics on all their data. This prevents the business from making better decisions to improve their company’s performance. Starburst provides a modern solution that addresses these data silo & speed of access problems. Starburst helps enterprises harness the value of Trino, the fastest distributed query engine available today, by adding the tools and 4x7 support that meet the needs for big data access at scale.
