Starburst Stargate: One Cluster to Rule Them All
Blog post from Starburst
Starburst Stargate is a transformative feature designed to enhance data access and performance across complex, geographically distributed environments by allowing multiple Starburst clusters to communicate seamlessly, thus minimizing the need for data centralization and duplication through costly ETL pipelines. It facilitates a multi-cloud or hybrid approach, enabling data architects and engineers to provide timely and secure access to global data without the need for extensive data movement, thereby reducing egress costs and administrative burdens. With configurable visibility of data sources and robust role-based access control, Starburst Stargate simplifies the security landscape and ensures compliance with data sovereignty laws by enabling remote data querying. This innovative approach integrates with Starburst's performance-enhancing features such as query pushdown, dynamic filtering, and cost-based optimization, collectively ensuring improved time to insights while reducing both costs and risks associated with traditional data management strategies.
