Solution offers quick data connection with an edge in computation

Pros

"It's almost similar, yet it's better than Starburst in spinning up or connecting to the new source since it's on SaaS."

Cons

"They need to have multiple connectors. "

It enables you to manage changes more effectively than any other platform.

Pros

"Dremio enables you to manage changes more effectively than any other data warehouse platform. There are two things that come into play. One is data lineage. If you are looking at data in Dremio, you may want to know the source and what happened to it along the way or how it may have been transformed in the data pipeline to get to the point where you're consuming it. "

Cons

"They have an automated tool for building SQL queries, so you don't need to know SQL. That interface works, but it could be more efficient in terms of the SQL generated from those things. It's going through some growing pains. There is so much value in tools like these for people with no SQL experience. Over time, Dermio will make these capabilities more accessible to users who aren't database people. "

Effortless data analytics with flexible integration and room for advanced schema capabilities

Pros

"Dremio is very easy to use for building queries."

Cons

"There are performance issues at times due to our limited experience with Dremio, and the fact that we are running it on single nodes using a community version. "

Stable self-service data tool used for service to service integration and to manage simple ad hoc queries

Pros

"Dremio gives you the ability to create services which do not require additional resources and sterilization. "

Cons

"Dremio doesn't support the Delta connector. Dremio writes the IT support for Delta, but the support isn't great. There is definitely room for improvement. "

Offers smooth installation and cloud/on-prem flexibility, but faces integration challenges with Databricks

Pros

"We primarily use Dremio to create a data framework and a data queue. "

Cons

"We've faced a challenge with integrating Dremio and Databricks, specifically regarding authentication. It is not shaking hands very easily. "

A highly stable solution that works like a data warehouse on top of data lakes

Pros

"Dremio allows querying the files I have on my block storage or object storage."

Cons

"I cannot use the recursive common table expression (CTE) in Dremio because the support page says it's currently unsupported."

Beneficial memory competition, good support, and price well

Pros

"The most valuable feature of Dremio is it can sit on top of any other data storage, such as Amazon S3, Azure Data Factory, SGFS, or Hive. The memory competition is good. If you are running any kind of materialized view, you'd be running in memory."

Cons

"Dremio takes a long time to execute large queries or the executing of correlated queries or nested queries. Additionally, the solution could improve if we could read data from the streaming pipelines or if it allowed us to create the ETL pipeline directly on top of it, similar to Snowflake."
