Introducing new SQL enhancements in Starburst Galaxy
Blog post from Starburst
Starburst Galaxy has introduced two new features, Jobs and SQL routines, to enhance SQL workflow efficiency and reduce operational overhead for data professionals dealing with complex, repetitive tasks. The Jobs feature allows users to automate and schedule SQL query execution, providing monitoring and logging capabilities for tracking progress and identifying anomalies. SQL routines, limited to scalar user-defined functions, enable users to create reusable custom functions within their queries, enhancing code modularity and simplifying complex operations. These enhancements aim to improve productivity and allow data engineers to focus on strategic tasks, with Jobs in public preview and SQL routines generally available, accessible through a free Starburst Galaxy account.
