Announcing Starburst’s AWS EKS Marketplace Listing

Starburst has made it easier to deploy its Enterprise analytics engine on Amazon Web Services (AWS) with the introduction of Starburst Enterprise for Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS) in the AWS Marketplace. This deployment option streamlines the installation and configuration process by allowing users to deploy a fully optimized version of Starburst on a Kubernetes cluster using EKS's native features like autoscaling and Spot instance integration. The deployment is self-service and offered as a pay-as-you-go model, with billing managed through the user's existing AWS account. The blog post outlines a detailed setup process, including prerequisites like an AWS account and specific tools such as Helm and eksctl, and provides instructions for setting up an EKS cluster, configuring the environment, and installing Starburst. With this new offering, users can leverage the full capabilities of the Starburst platform, integrate it with AWS data sources like AWS Glue, and manage it efficiently within their cloud infrastructure.
