Technical talks and explainers about how Firebolt works
Introducing Firebolt Core
We're excited announce the launch of Firebolt Core, a free, self-managed version of Firebolt that you can run anywhere, from a massive distributed cluster to a laptop.
Reading with table-valued functions
TVFs are great for data exploration without needing to ingest data, as well as targeted ingestion of specific data that you have in existing files.
Compute families in Firebolt
Firebolt introduced a new compute family: compute-optimized. By providing proportionally more CPU than memory and disk space, it can power up CPU-intensive workloads or engines operating on small datasets.
Online upgrades in Firebolt
In Firebolt, what happens when we have a new release, but your engine is running? It's a seamless upgrade that makes sure Firebolt users are always getting the best experience.
What is vectorized query execution?
Vectorized execution is a common strategy in nearly every modern query engine, and Benjamin Wagner, Director of Engineering at Firebolt, is here to explain how it works.
Geospatial functionality in Firebolt
Explore the differences between geometry and geography, how Firebolt leveraged the S2 library, and how we return geospatial query results as efficiently as possible.

Firebolt Workshop Videos

A hands-on introduction to all of the key Firebolt concepts
Intro to Firebolt
What is Firebolt? A next-gen cloud data warehouse and data analytics platform. In this first episode of our Firebolt Workshop series, Dev Advocate Cole Bowden explains what makes Firebolt different and what makes it shine.
Databases
Databases are the bread and butter of storing your data in Firebolt. They are the home of all of your data, including all your tables and external tables.
Engines
Engines are the compute layer in Firebolt. They do all your work - reading, writing, transforming, and accessing data, no matter where that data lives.
Ingesting Data
Once you've set up your database and engine, the next question is how you can load data into Firebolt.
Primary Indexes
Primary indexes are the single most important optimization a Firebolt user needs to be aware of.
Aggregating Indexes
Aggregating Indexes are Firebolt's unique and improved approach to materialized views.
