Starburst Integration with Unity Catalog

Starburst has announced a new integration with Unity Catalog, expanding the capability of Starburst Enterprise and Starburst Galaxy by supporting Unity Catalog as a metastore option. This integration enhances interoperability and flexibility, allowing users to manage and query data across platforms, specifically within the Databricks ecosystem. Unity Catalog's open REST APIs enable Starburst to interact with both external and managed tables, supporting multiple compute engines and data stored across major cloud platforms like Amazon S3, Azure Data Lake Storage, and Google Cloud Storage. The integration provides comprehensive features for data access, management, and security, such as support for reading and writing various data formats and table types, including managed Delta Lake tables and Iceberg tables. Additionally, it adopts Unity Catalog’s native security model, leveraging OAuth 2.0 for secure authentication. This integration underscores Starburst's commitment to interoperability, allowing data teams to unify governance and access across diverse compute environments while maintaining flexibility and performance.
