## AI overview

Project Tardigrade adds fault-tolerant execution to Trino, improving the experience of running resource-intensive ETL and batch queries. Its architecture supports granular retries, resource-aware scheduling, and fair progress for concurrent workloads without requiring queries to restart from scratch after failures.

## Source excerpt

After six months of challenging work on Project Tardigrade, we are ready to launch. With the project we improved the user experience of running resource intensive queries that are common in the Extract, Transform, Load (ETL) and batch processing space. It required some significant and fascinating engineering to get us to the current status. The latest Trino release includes all the work from Project Tardigrade. Read on to learn how it all works, and how to enable the fault-tolerant execution in Trino.
