Overview

Product Information on Starburst Enterprise

Updated 15th June 2026

What is Starburst Enterprise?

Starburst is the Enterprise Intelligence Platform that connects, organizes, and activates AI on distributed enterprise data — without moving it. Built on enterprise-hardened Trino, Starburst delivers high-performance federated SQL across cloud lakes, warehouses, and operational systems on Apache Iceberg's open table format. The Enterprise Context Layer organizes distributed data into shared ground truth — serving governed business context, data products, and semantic definitions at query time so humans and AI work from the same trusted foundation. AIDA, Starburst's AI Data Assistant, connects models, tools, and agents through a governed, model-agnostic agentic layer grounded in certified enterprise data. Deployed as Starburst Enterprise Platform (SEP) for on-premises/hybrid environments or Galaxy, a fully managed SaaS offering. Primary use cases: federated analytics, enterprise data products, AI-readiness for regulated industries, and governed agentic workflows.

Starburst Enterprise Pricing

Starburst Enterprise software uses a subscription-based pricing model, typically structured around annual or multi-year agreements. Pricing is determined based on factors such as the number of nodes or processing capacity and includes access to support, updates, and enterprise features. The software is available in different tiers to align with various usage and performance requirements.

About Company

Company Description

Updated 21st December 2023

For data-driven companies, Starburst offers a full-featured data lake analytics platform, built on open source Trino. Our platform includes the capabilities needed to discover, organize, and consume data without the need for time-consuming and costly migrations. We believe the lake should be the center of gravity, but support accessing data outside the lake when needed. With Starburst, teams can access more complete data, lower the cost of infrastructure, use the tools best suited to their specific needs, and avoid vendor lock-in. Starburst helps companies make better decisions faster on all their data.

    The biggest feature that directly impacted my evaluation of Starburst was how it revolutionized data ingestion. Starburst fulfilled a need to ingest and provide query engine capabilities against stream security event data stored in our data lake. Schema discovery provided just that!
