How it works

Land

Starburst works directly with your cloud object storage. Start by choosing where you want to store your data – Amazon S3, Azure Data Lake Storage, or Google Cloud Storage. Gather and land that data in your object storage location of choice.

Structure

Connect Starburst Galaxy to your object storage and transform your raw data files into Iceberg tables. Or, leverage Galaxy’s built-in ingestion solution to automatically stream data into your data lake and land it in Iceberg format.

Consume

Curate gold-standard tables that are ready to be queried using SQL or Python data pipelines. Add proper data governance with built-in access controls to ensure proper read-only access to your data sets.

Optimize

Automatically run common data lake management tasks like compaction, vacuuming, and retention with Starburst Galaxy to ensure optimal performance.

Core Platform Capabilities

“The move to Starburst and Iceberg has resulted in a 12x reduction in compute costs versus our previous data warehouse. This efficiency allows us to focus our attention on using analytics for revenue-generating opportunities.”

– Peter Lim, Sr. Data Engineer, Yello

“We moved from a monolithic Snowflake approach to a decentralized approach with Starburst and Iceberg. Now we can skip the data warehouse step completely, and complete analytics on the data right where it sits.”

– Lutz Künneke, Director of Engineering, BestSecret
