Add public preview support for read-only connections to Google BigQuery warehouses as data sources on Google Cloud.
Add support for customizing the minimum and maximum number of worker nodes when autoscaling up to handle large queries. In the navigation menu, see Admin > Cluster configurations.
Simplified and clarified the assignment of privileges to roles and users to roles. See Access control > Roles and Privileges and click a role name.
Continuing from July: preview support for configuring Galaxy accounts for single sign-on (SSO) authentication with third-party identity providers Okta, Azure Active Directory, and Google Workspace. Contact your Galaxy support engineer if you wish to participate in the preview release.

Coming soon! Add support for MongoDB as a data source.
We’ve also published two new client guides for Metabase and Zing Data, with information on how to connect these great tools to Starburst Enterprise, Starburst Galaxy, and Trino.
