Innovative, and high value adding product for all data users at scale.
What do you like best about the product?
The best part about starburst is the extensive documentation and support for the product itself. The number of features is also a plus and the frequent version updates to the product in general. The UI is very simple to use and easy to understand for the most part.
What do you dislike about the product?
One thing I would suggest is for the UI to be more intuitive and more similar to snowflake when it comes to analyzing queries. I would suggest that when I look at a query, the breakdown of operations is more clear (aggregate time, sorting, creating the table, etc.) I would also with there was support for declaratively setting roles through terraform so that it is easier for us to maintain internally.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The problem we see a lot is migrating data between data warehouses and this is where most of the value add is. This helps save immesne time plus costs on our end of migrating data. For example a use case may be bringing SAP data into Google BigQuery.
No more waiting for a pixels dry!
What do you like best about the product?
Starburst leverages the power of Trino to offer a high-performance and scalable SQL query engine that has significantly optimized our data analysis and business intelligence operations. The application excels in its ability to perform fast analytics across various data sources without the need for migration, providing a seamless and unified querying layer.
**What I like best:**
1. **Federated Queries:** Starburst's federated querying capability is a game-changer. It allows us to query data across different sources such as Hadoop, S3, or even relational databases like MySQL, and PostgreSQL, with ease. This means there’s no need for complex ETL processes to move data around, saving time and reducing the risk of errors.
2. **Performance Enhancements:** Starburst provides additional performance enhancements over Trino's already fast query engine. It optimizes query execution to minimize latency and maximize efficiency, which is vital for our large datasets and complex queries.
3. **Security Features:** Enterprise-grade security is another standout feature. Starburst provides added layers of protection including data encryption, access controls, and integration with our existing security systems. This ensures our data is not only quickly accessible but also secure.
4. **Scalability:** The scalability of Starburst is impressive. As our data demands grow, Starburst scales with us, ensuring that our analytical capabilities can keep pace with our expanding data footprint without degradation in performance.
5. **Professional Support and Services:** Access to professional support and services ensures that any issues are promptly addressed, and we can also optimize our usage of Starburst with expert guidance.
In conclusion, Starburst provides a robust solution for organizations looking to harness the full power of Trino with additional enterprise capabilities. Its ability to query across various data sources efficiently, enhanced performance, and strong security measures make it an invaluable tool for any data-driven enterprise.

What do you dislike about the product?
Charges applies high but the product is good, I've never seen any drawbacks till now since i'm using in my current project in Gilead.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sometime if i'm querying for lacks of data it hits me an error, sometime URL's doesn't work, however we get support team immedeatly to sort out the issue in Dev, Test, Production environment quickly but it often happes twice or trice in a month, should be improved.

What do you dislike about the product?
Pricing model that aside from charging for the license, we also need to pay for the provided CPU hour.
This feels like a double charge taking into account that I'm already paying for that infrastrustructure on my cloud provider, specially taking into account that we have to fully manage our infrastructure and their support will not help us on this side.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
- It's our Data Mesh main query engine.
- We use it to access data from different raw sources (S3 + Glue, RDBMS) and even different cloud providers like GCP
- Removing some of the cognitive load of running Trino OpenSource on EKS

Supporting, tunning multiple workloads in production
What do you like best about the product?
Great support, awnser every question, very fast awnsers for first request. Great product, meet almost all ours needs. Delivery high quality and very acurate. It needs to improve on some points, but nothing that discredits or leaves something to be desired.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometime we expirienced some delay in ticket loop. Should invest efforts to make some features toggleable, make it more flexible. FTE, mult-tenant, and add some query history in console, with statistics , would be great.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
After we make starburst (trino) available to all company members, changed the way they see data. Due to the nature of Trino it can connect to multiple databases/datastores we have no more delays to delivery information.
