The Brief

What StarTree Cloud does

StarTree Cloud is a managed real-time analytics query engine built on Apache Pinot. It queries streaming data and open table formats, including Apache Iceberg and Delta Lake, and indexes open tables in place. It is intended for customer-facing analytics, observability, personalization, and agent-driven decisions. Named features include scalable upserts, tiered and external storage, autoscaling, role-based access control, single sign-on, the Data Portal UI, vector similarity search, and integrations with Confluent, Snowflake, and Tableau. It can be deployed as SaaS, in a customer-owned cloud account (BYOC), or on Kubernetes (BYOK). Pricing is based on capacity, with no separate per-GB streaming-ingestion charge.
