Components of a Starburst data lakehouse | Starburst Academy

In this video, we delve into the key components of a Starburst data lakehouse and how it's revolutionizing the data landscape by offering a truly open approach. The open data lakehouse is here!
Starburst's open data lakehouse harnesses the power of Apache Iceberg, Delta Lake, and Hive table formats. At the same time, Starburst doesn't force you into using any particular technology. Instead, it provides optionality for your data, allowing you to choose the best tools for your needs.
But what exactly is a data lakehouse? Think of it as the best of both worlds - combining the flexibility of a data lake with the advanced features of a data warehouse. Traditional data warehouses are performant, but they aren't always cost effective. Data lakes are more affordable, but lack certain features found in the data warehouse. With data lakehouses, you get enhanced capabilities like schema enforcement, ACID transactions, and query optimization, while still retaining the low-cost and flexibility of a traditional data lake.
Join us as we explore how Starburst's data lakehouse approach offers the perfect balance between features and functionality, providing organizations with the ultimate optimization for their data needs.
