join me on a quick test drive of the features of materialized views in starburst galaxy (saas offering powered by trino) which use apache iceberg for persistence and features some pretty cool features around snapshots and awareness of stale data

come along on a quick tutorial of loading some airline flight data into a cloud object store and performing some data analysis of it from the starburst galaxy sql engine in the sky
hive, trino & spark features (their journeys to sql, performance & durability)
different big data sql engines are created to solve a particular lack of focus from existing ones, but sooner or later they all start looking like each other from their list of features and observable behaviors

a long (and short) video of performing a federated join across s3, redshift, and mysql using trino-based starburst galaxy
querying starburst galaxy from tableau (super easy)
short post pointing to the youtube video i created showing how to use starburst galaxy to query data from tableau desktop
