Sulisa is an enterprise-grade Data OS that enables organizations to rapidly build and manage open data lakehouses using leading open-source technologies like Trino, Iceberg, and dbt Core, avoiding vendor lock-in.

Try it out

Sulisa offers a fully-managed data platform designed to help enterprises construct and operate an open data lakehouse with remarkable speed. It primarily serves data teams, including engineers and analysts, who want to leverage the power of best-in-class open-source tools without the associated operational overhead. The platform's core value lies in its integration of Trino, Apache Iceberg, and dbt Core, providing a cohesive environment for data querying, storage, and transformation. By abstracting the complexity of infrastructure management, Sulisa allows organizations to focus on deriving insights while maintaining data ownership and avoiding proprietary lock-in. It further enhances this ecosystem with built-in governance, security features, and a universal semantic layer for consistent business logic.

Pros

  • Built on an open-source foundation (Trino, Iceberg, dbt) to prevent vendor lock-in.
  • Fully-managed service reduces engineering effort and time-to-value for setting up a data lakehouse.
  • Integrates query, storage, transformation, and governance into a single cohesive platform.
  • Allows companies to maintain data ownership by operating on their own cloud storage.
  • Offers a free starter tier for individuals and small teams to evaluate the platform.

Cons

  • As a relatively new platform, it lacks the long-term track record of players like Databricks or Snowflake.
  • Pricing for paid tiers is opaque and requires contacting sales, which complicates evaluation.
  • The integration ecosystem and community support may be less mature than established competitors.
  • Focus on a specific tech stack may not suit teams already invested in alternatives like Apache Spark.

Key features

  • Managed Trino query engine for high-performance SQL.
  • Managed Apache Iceberg for data lake table format management.
  • Integrated dbt Core for data transformation and modeling.
  • Universal Semantic Layer for consistent business metrics.
