Any idea what the query engine/translation layer they are using is? I'm assuming there is something like Presto underneath it, but quite curious.

- dc_gregory 8y agoThe pricing model actually sounds a little like Athena.
- DVassallo 8y agoI'm with the team that built this. It's actually a new purpose-built engine, optimized for near real-time availability of large scale volumes of log data. It supports an unbounded number of fields across log records, and doesn't require the definition of a schema or dealing with data types at setup/ingestion time. Compute and storage are separate, which is what allows queries to address data from any time window. There is no limit on the data retention period.
