Dremio, a SQL lakehouse specialist, released its cloud-native SQL-based data lakehouse service, Dremio Cloud. Purpose-built for the cloud, Dremio Cloud makes cloud data lakes easier to use while delivering infinite scale and industry-leading security. Dremio Cloud enables organizations of any size to leverage an open data architecture that eliminates the need to copy data into expensive and proprietary data warehouses.

The new service enables high-performance SQL workloads directly on cloud storage, eliminating the cost and complexity of copying and moving data.  For example, the automatic onboarding option establishes the necessary connection to the user’s AWS account, allowing data consumers to connect via their tools and start querying data. Dremio Cloud users have no software to install, configure, or upgrade, and no infrastructure to size, manage, and monitor.

Dremio Cloud includes the company's query acceleration technologies, a semantic layer, and native single-sign-on connectors in Tableau and Power BI. Enterprises can run production BI workloads directly on their cloud data lake and data scientists can benefit from high-throughput access to result sets via Apache Arrow. 

The service was designed for the analytic workloads of all companies, ranging from Fortune 500 enterprises to early-stage startups. Dremio control plane’s cloud-native microservices and service mesh architecture provides limitless query planning capacity. The data plane’s multi-engine, multi-replica architecture automatically scales elastically based on workload. Resources are scaled on-demand to use only what's needed. Additional financial governance capabilities provide visibility, control, and predictability of costs.

Dremio was purpose-built to provide the industry’s high levels of security with multiple layers of protection, and is launching its cloud service with System On Chip (SOC) 2 compliance. Data is encrypted both at rest and in motion, with state-of-the-art key management that facilitates secure communication between the clients, control plane, and data plane. Advanced role-based access control (RBAC) allows companies to define privileges on every dataset and object in the system. For details, visit www.dremio.com.
