Delivering Text Search Capabilities Directly on the Data Lake with Starburst

Starburst's approach to delivering text search capabilities directly on data lakes addresses the challenges of conducting agile text searches on massive datasets without moving data to proprietary platforms. By utilizing their Smart Indexing and Caching technology, which incorporates the open-source Apache Lucene library, Starburst enables efficient text searches by cutting data into nanoblocks, allowing for optimized indexing at a granular level. This method reduces the cardinality challenge and supports advanced text search applications such as logs analysis, cyber threat detection, and marketing analytics. The solution is designed to be cost-effective, minimizing total cost of ownership and maintenance time, thereby accelerating innovation for data-driven organizations.
