    Dremio - the missing link in modern data

  • Dremio - Dremio is a data lakehouse based on the open-source Apache Iceberg table format. It offers different compute instances to process data that lives in your S3 bucket. You pay for S3 storage independently.

  • Trino

    Official repository of Trino, the distributed SQL query engine for big data, formerly known as PrestoSQL (https://trino.io)

  • However, once your data reaches a certain size or you reach the limits of vertical scaling, it may be necessary to distribute your queries across a cluster, or scale horizontally. This is where distributed query engines like Trino and Spark come in. Distributed query engines make use of a coordinator to plan the query and multiple worker nodes to execute them in parallel.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
