## AI overview

An overview of Trino's evolution as a massively parallel SQL query engine, covering Java runtime upgrades, container and Kubernetes deployment, large-scale hardware, and security capabilities.

## Source excerpt

It's amazing how far we have come! Our massively-parallel processing SQL query engine, Trino, has really grown up. We have moved beyond just querying object stores using Hive, beyond just one company using the project, beyond usage in Silicon Valley, beyond simple SQL SELECT statements, and definitely also beyond our expectations. Let's have a look at some of the great technical and architectural changes the project underwent, and how we all benefit from the commitment to quality, openness and collaboration.
