Google Cloud Native — The Serverless Powerhouse

Leverage BigQuery, Cloud Run, and Cloud Composer to create a pipeline that scales to zero while capable of scaling to infinity.

🚀

Orchestration: Cloud Composer (Airflow)

Starlake generates lightweight DAGs for Cloud Composer. These DAGs trigger and monitor tasks without containing data processing logic, allowing a small environment to orchestrate thousands of complex pipelines.

⚡

Compute: Cloud Run (Serverless)

Starlake uses Cloud Run for ingestion. It scales to zero when idle and spins up in milliseconds to process large files, ensuring you only pay for the CPU seconds used.

📊

Storage & Query: BigQuery Native

Data never leaves Google's backbone. Starlake streams validated rows directly into BigQuery and transpiles transformations into native BigQuery SQL for maximum performance.

🔒

Security & Observability

Operate using Google Service Accounts and IAM policies. All logs are automatically aggregated in Cloud Logging and Cloud Monitoring for full transparency.

The Zero-Egress Advantage

Since the Cloud Run container and BigQuery storage reside in the same region, data never leaves Google's internal network. This eliminates egress fees and aligns processing with your existing security perimeters.
