Trino. The Definitive Guide: SQL at Any Scale, on Any Storage, in Any Environment 153337

 Trino. The Definitive Guide is the first and foremost book about the Trino distributed query engine. The book is aimed at beginners & existing users of Trino alike. Ideally, you have some understanding of databases and SQL, but if not, you can divert from reading and look things up while working your way through this book. No matter your level of expertise, we are sure that you’ll learn something new.

 The revised edition of the book takes the rename from Presto to Trino—of the codebase, the project, the binaries, and the community around it—into account. It also includes numerous smaller improvements and an update to the latest Trino release.

The first part of the book introduces you to Trino and then helps you get up and running quickly so you can start learning how to use it. This includes installation and first use of the command-line interface as well as many client- and web-based applications, such as SQL database management or dashboard and reporting tools, using the JDBC driver.

The second part of the book advances your knowledge and includes details about the Trino architecture, cluster deployment, many connectors to data sources, and a lot of information about the main power of Trino—querying any data source with SQL.

The third part of the book rounds out the content with further aspects you need to know when running and using a production Trino deployment. This includes Web UI usage, security configuration, and some discussion of real-world uses of Trino in other organizations.
