Trino

Trino is a distributed SQL query engine for federated analytics across multiple data sources. It was formerly known as PrestoSQL, and it queries data where it lives rather than storing it. The project is developed under the trinodb organisation and the Trino Software Foundation, and its source code is licensed under Apache-2.0, so it is open source and free to use. Trino is run self-managed. Starburst offers a commercial product built around Trino, but its details were not verified here, so buyers should check terms and pricing with that vendor directly. The latest release is 483, dated 18 July 2026. Buyers should note that building Trino from source requires Java 25, so the Java environment needs to be checked before any upgrade or custom build. Because Trino does not hold the data itself, it is most relevant to organisations that want a single SQL layer over data spread across several systems, and that are prepared to operate the cluster. No licence change, closed product line or dormant status was found, and the project remains active.
