Easy tool to integrate multiple platforms data into single
What do you like best about the product?
In the latest versions of Starburst, We liked the idea of Data products. It helps us integrate data from different sources like Hadoop, SQL and Mongo. Easy to query the tables and track the history.
What do you dislike about the product?
Wish more support for Mongo tables data. Some of the data types are not supported to query in starburst.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Integrating multiple data sources into single platform.
Smooth migration. Great performance and cost efficiencies
What do you like best about the product?
We migrated to Galaxy to improve the performance of our dashboards. We had a very smooth migration to Galaxy, with excellent help from SB solution engineers. All in all, Galaxy showed out-of-the-box high performance, allowing us to generate insights more quickly and make data-driven decisions faster, and tremendous cost efficiencies
What do you dislike about the product?
I think that the user interface of the cluster can still improve in terms of its stability and convenience, and more configuration options can be added to the admin screen.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
In addition to the smooth migration process, we have seen significant query cost savings since moving to Galaxy. Trino's query engine is highly optimized for complex analytical queries, allowing us to run queries more efficiently and with fewer resources. As a result, we have reduced our query costs by a significant amount, which has been a major benefit for our company. Since migrating to Galaxy, we have seen a significant improvement in query performance. With Trino's distributed architecture and parallel processing capabilities, we can run queries much faster than we were able to with our previous data warehouse solution. This has allowed us to generate insights and make data-driven decisions more quickly, which has been a massive advantage for our business.
Our data, previously difficult to work with, feels unlocked
What do you like best about the product?
1. Seamless querying across databases, even of different types.
2. Transparent troubleshooting.
3. Built on top of open source software. Makes troubleshooting easier!

What do you dislike about the product?
Only nitpicky things here, like lack of autocomplete in the UI. Also, using the same Hive metastore across multiple catalogs results in all of those catalogs showing every schema in the metastore in every catalog that uses it. Would be nice to filter those.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Like I said in the beginning, it feels like we have unlocked our data for our data analysts and anyone at the organization that needs to get to some data that was previously difficult to access. Being able to query across several databases of different types is incredible and working seamlessly. Hard to imagine working without it at this point.
Deployment of Starburst was smooth
What do you like best about the product?
Starburst as a tool is very impressive, with a wide selection of options available to make it highly customisable. With features like the ability to write queries and join multiple data sources that otherwise, we wouldn't be able to. This allows for a single-pain-of-glass approach that we wouldn't have had before the implementation of Starburst.
Help from TAMs and Techincal Teams have been excellent throughout our journey, often granting time and help to us, to make Starburst act like we want it to.
Along with this the use of Kubernetes to make the platform more scalable and configurable has been great during the development.

Along with this the use of Kubernetes to make the platform more scalable and configurable has been great during the development.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes, the options available within the documentation for specific tools (like specific connectors) can feel a tad lacking, meaning we occasionally have to reach out to support to resolve queries. Along with this, it would have been nice early on to have more information about how starburst is recommended to scale so that we would have been able to design it into our solution from Day 1.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Starburst is allowing the single-pane-of-glass approach that I have mentioned before. Along with enabling us to keep our data sources up to date and working towards a future where Data is easily accessible to the people who need to access it, through a single system.
Implementing Starburst within a Lakehouse Architecture
What do you like best about the product?
Starburst is great for acting as a Data Federation Hub. It is simple to configure new connectors and getting those up and running very quickly.
Starburst integration and acceleration of iceberg based data in S3 was the key selling point for us. Enabling our vision of a Lakehouse based on AWS .

What do you dislike about the product?
The public facing documentation does not quite cover all the nuances of installation and configuration. We encounter a couple of scenarios where the documentation didn't go far enough with instructions. However, the account team were able to fill in the gaps.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our challenge was allowing a single interface for data consumers and production processes to query across our established data warehouse and our lakehouse. Allowing us to link data that could not be linked before.
Ingest and Act on Data Faster
What do you like best about the product?
Starburst has empowered our team to take large data sets and really understand how those datasets will optimize our business model. Starburst has a UI that makes this process both easy and seamless as well.
What do you dislike about the product?
While Starburst's concept offers a straightforward approach toward obtaining helpful data in an ingestible way, at times the connectors/integrations do not work as expected.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
For our team, we encounter large lead lists and analytics on performances by our teams, partners, and affiliates. Starburst allows us to identify areas of both strength and weakness that we previously would spend hours sifting through to understand.
I have 15+ experience in Database admin
What do you like best about the product?
Connecting to the Multiple sources and Retrieving the Data
What do you dislike about the product?
Modifying the Query function and Hive Queries
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are tested using Starburst in Data factory , on one linked service , For Data Comparision it is very easy
Great Product
What do you like best about the product?
We have found that Starburst Enterprise is very easy to deploy, use and administer. The tool has many connectors and can run queries across multiple data sources which power all our ad-hoc analyses from various teams. The support systems are very helpful and the case response time is quite low and resulting in faster resolution.
What do you dislike about the product?
We ran into issues during the upgrade due to some undocumented breaking changes that affected our timelines. Maybe a way to administer adding or removing data catalogs without restarting the cluster.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Enterprise connectors allow us to easily connect legacy source systems to our modern ones. Starburst Support is extremely helpful and knowledgeable with very technical questions Starburst product features continue to impress, such as Insights and Galaxy, and the integration capabilities are very strong
Starburst helped scale Meesho's workload
What do you like best about the product?
Technology, continious improvement on projects. New features, good support from RSA and customer excellence team, solutioning from RSA and helping with the meesho scale
What do you dislike about the product?
billing transparency, usage analysis and more recommendations towards query improvement
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
ETL and dashboarding solutions. real time processing, reverse etl
Starburst Enterprise is a really good solution to deliver data comsuption for your data environment
What do you like best about the product?
Starburst has a lot of features that improve the experience in comparison with Trino OpenSource. Besides, a lot of features are still in development. The basic features already fill your requirements to make connections between all your sources into a single point of truth.
What do you dislike about the product?
We spent a good amount of time configuring the certificates with Apache Ranger and Starburst Enterprise. The Helm Chart of Apache Ranger it's not stable right now and maybe I'll switch to Built-in access control that have the same granulity control of Ranger.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Starburst helps us to configure a Helm Release that is auditable and easily scalable with all the configurations set to our security pattern. And all the solutions are built-in (control and query editor), that we don't need more complexity to create an environment to consume from Trino (Starburst Enterprise).
