Tutorial Presto 8.8 -
Presto 8.8 is a distributed SQL query engine designed for fast, interactive analytics on large datasets. It enables users to run ANSI SQL queries across heterogeneous data sources — including HDFS, object stores (S3, GCS), relational databases, and specialized stores (Cassandra, Kafka, Elasticsearch) — without moving the data. Presto separates query parsing/planning (coordinator) from execution (workers), allowing scalable, low-latency processing ideal for BI, ad-hoc exploration, and dashboarding.
