  • Iceberg materialized views for sub-second governed queries
  • Compatible with Spark, Flink, Hive: same tables, any engine

Compliance

Built for where the data can't leave

Financial regulators, defense agencies, and healthcare networks have data that legally or contractually cannot move to a public cloud. Dell Data Lakehouse powered by Starburst gives these organizations the full analytics platform, including AI, without that constraint.

  • HIPAA, PCI DSS, FedRAMP-aligned patterns
  • RBAC/ABAC at the query engine, not a bolt-on
  • Full audit log exportable to on-prem SIEM
  • No telemetry, no external calls in air-gapped deployments
