Starburst’s approach to data products uses data as a product thinking at its core. Using data should be as easy as using any other product. Intuitive accessibility informs everything we do, empowering businesses to easily access curated data from multiple sources. This includes modern cloud data lake object storage sources, like AWS S3, Azure Blob Storage, and Google Cloud Storage, and more conventional data warehouse platforms. Data products can also be created using data federation, and always include security and governance to manage data access by role, data domain, or use case.
