What is Presto?
Presto lets you query massive datasets across multiple data sources with sub-second performance. Whether it’s ad hoc analytics or powering real-time apps, Presto is fast, reliable, and efficient at any scale.
Presto lets you query data where it lives—data lakes, lakehouses, NoSQL databases, and beyond. With dozens of connectors, you can run a single SQL query across multiple sources to federate your queries and unlock insights across your entire organization.
Lightning-Fast Performance
Built as an in-memory distributed SQL engine, Presto delivers blazing-fast analytics, outperforming other compute engines in the disaggregated stack.
One SQL Engine for All Workloads
From small datasets to petabyte-scale analytics, Presto scales effortlessly for both interactive and batch workloads. Write once, query anywhere, using ANSI SQL—no need to switch engines as your data grows.
Open Source, Your Way
As a Linux Foundation project, Presto is driven by a vibrant open-source community with contributions from dozens of companies. Deploy Presto anywhere—on-premises or in the cloud—and stay in control of your data.
Why Developers Choose Presto
Presto enables fast, reliable queries across any scale—from a few nodes to Meta-like infrastructures. Use Presto to run ad-hoc queries, power reporting, and optimize your data lakehouse.
