A Starburst Data Case Study
A Fortune 500 Oil and Gas Company needed a more scalable and cost-effective way to support internal analytics as its data volumes grew. According to the case study, the company had been using open source Trino on Amazon EMR, but performance issues and unsuccessful queries were driving up costs and limiting the availability of data for reporting, dashboards, ad hoc analysis, and other use cases.
Starburst Data implemented Starburst Enterprise as the query engine for the company’s cloud-only AWS environment, where all data resides in Amazon S3. The solution improved query performance and success rates, reduced costs by cutting down on failed queries, enabled optimized clusters for different workloads, and strengthened security and data access controls.
