StarTree + Preset
Real-time analytics at any scale. StarTree's managed Apache Pinot™ platform delivers sub-second query latency on billions of rows, and Preset transforms those results into interactive dashboards your whole team can use.
The complete real-time analytics stack
Sub-second queries on live data
Apache Pinot's columnar storage and specialized indexes power millisecond responses even as data streams in from Kafka, S3, or other sources.
Purpose-built for user-facing analytics
StarTree Cloud is designed for dashboards that serve thousands of users simultaneously—no resource contention, no slowdowns under load.
40+ visualization types
Map your real-time Pinot data into time-series charts, geographic maps, funnels, pivot tables, and more using Preset's rich chart library.
SQL Lab for exploration
Preset's SQL IDE connects directly to StarTree, giving analysts autocomplete, schema browsing, and query history for ad-hoc Pinot SQL exploration.
Scheduled reports & alerts
Automate dashboard delivery via Slack or email. Set threshold alerts on your real-time metrics so teams know the moment something changes.
Embedded analytics
Embed StarTree-powered dashboards inside your own product using Preset's embedding SDK, with row-level security for multi-tenant use cases.

Follow StarTree's official guide for connecting Apache Superset to StarTree Cloud. You'll configure a Pinot database connection in Preset using your StarTree cluster's broker URL and any required authentication headers.
StarTree Cloud supports real-time ingestion from Apache Kafka and batch ingestion from S3, GCS, Azure Blob, and HDFS. All ingested data is immediately queryable through Preset.
Traditional warehouses optimize for large batch queries. Apache Pinot (and StarTree) optimize for low-latency queries under high concurrency—making it ideal for dashboards serving end users rather than internal analysts running overnight reports.
Yes. Preset's query caching can reduce redundant queries to StarTree for dashboards with stable data. For truly real-time use cases, you can set short or zero TTL to always fetch fresh results.
