What is Presto?
Presto is an open source SQL query engine that's fast, reliable, and efficient at scale. Use Presto to run interactive/ad hoc queries at sub-second performance for your high volume apps.
See how some the largest internet-scale companies are using Presto today. It doesn't matter if you're operating at Meta-like scale or at just a few nodes - Presto is for everyone!
Presto can query relational & NoSQL databases, data warehouses, data lakes and more and has dozens of connectors available today. It also allows querying data where it lives and a single Presto query can combine data from multiple sources, allowing for analytics across your entire organization.
Presto is an in-memory distributed SQL engine, faster than other compute engines in the disaggregated stack
Presto can be used for interactive and batch workloads, small and large amounts of data, and scales from a few to thousands of users. With Presto, you get 1 familar ANSI SQL language and 1 engine for your data analytics so you don't need to graduate to another lakehouse engine.
Presto is a neutrally governed open source project under The Linux Foundation with dozens of member companies (and growing!). Run Presto wherever you want, on-prem or in any cloud.
There's a lot of ways to get involved with the Presto community. Join our Slack channel to connect with other Presto engineers and users, contribute to the project, and join our Virtual Meetup to stay up to date on community events.
