Trino is a massively parallel processing query engine that provides a quick and easy way to access datasets from a variety of sources using industry standard ANSI SQL.

Trino is best-known for handling ad-hoc data analytics workloads, and it shines when reading and federating data in a data warehouse or data lake. It also has a mode for fault tolerance which trades off some speed for reliability, making it effective at handling batch ETL/ELT workloads and insertions.

It is important to stress that though Trino understands SQL, it does not provide the features of a standard database. Trino is not a general-purpose relational database and does not store data, and you will need to use Trino’s connectors to query your database, data warehouse, or data lakehouse.
