One quick detail on the Trino description is that not only are some of the initial developers but all of the creators and the majority of contributors (https://github.com/prestodb/presto/graphs/contributors?from=...) and still have contributed the majority of the code in both Presto (https://github.com/prestodb/presto/graphs/contributors)/Trin... (https://github.com/trinodb/trino/graphs/contributors).

To really jump into this, take a look at https://trino.io/blog/2020/12/27/announcing-trino.html.

A few more stats and info:

Trino commits: 22,383 Presto commits: 18,582

Trino slack members: 3,603 Presto slack members: 1,575

Trino supports iceberg: https://trino.io/docs/current/connector/iceberg.html HDP3 Support: https://github.com/trinodb/trino/issues/1218

Trino has addressed a critical security vulnerability that still exists in Presto: https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2020-1508...

Yeah, when I was looking into this stuff it was sad to see the blog post about why Trino had to switch names. Unsurprisingly given the history, the Trino blog was the only place I could find written-up details about things like how to name files so they work with the new version of bucketing. The new features look really neat and hope the project has (continues to have) success!

Thanks!

You mean Hive bucketing v2? It was a fun project.

Yep! I had a situation where I wanted more than one file per bucket (for the sake of other code that uses the same data), and needed the improved bucketing for that.

Thanks! If you haven't, feel free to join our slack if you have any further questions. https://trino.io/slack.html
