"We have noticed improvements in performance using Starburst Enterprise. It handles complex data, including reading and partitioning files. We can add a new catalog to Starburst Enterprise by providing connection details and service account information. This allows us to integrate with existing tools, such as the Snowflake database, which we use for data protection in our project."

Cons
"The technical support has slight room for improvement.""The deployment time could also be reduced.""The authentication part of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required.""When I deploy the product in local errors, a lot of errors pop up which are not always caught. The solution's error logging is bad. It can take a lot of time to debug the errors. It needs to have better logs.""The solution's setup process could be more accessible.""Google Cloud Data Flow can improve by having full simple integration with Kafka topics. It's not that complicated, but it could improve a bit. The UI is easy to use but the experience could be better. There are other tools available that do a better job.""They should do a market survey and then make improvements.""Google Cloud Dataflow should include a little cost optimization."
