RESOURCES
Explore reference architectures, technical perspectives, data platform migration guides, webinars and case studies. Each resource is designed to help teams evaluate technology choices and operating implications.
RESOURCE LIBRARY
Start with a reference pattern, a decision guide or a short answer. Every resource names the technologies and versions it covers, so you can judge how it applies to your environment.
Reference architectures that explain the problem, the design choices, each technology’s responsibility and a route to proof of concept.
Engineering comparisons, operations checklists and product-change explainers, each with an author, a review date and a stated version scope.
Verified customer stories, published only with written client approval and structured as challenge, architecture, services and measured outcome.
Private discovery workshops, architecture reviews, PoC scoping and enablement sessions, plus public webinars and events when scheduled.
Straight answers on support scope, licensing, vendor status, deployment options, migration and disaster recovery.
TECHNICAL INSIGHTS
Practical guidance from Bassirah engineers on choosing, deploying and operating data, analytics and AI platforms.
Architecture Patterns
Synchronous replication, geo-partitioning, xCluster and read replicas solve different problems. What each does, what it costs and how to choose.

DECISION GUIDES
Some technologies are available both as a partner-led commercial offering and as a community edition that Bassirah supports independently. We publish the trade-offs openly so you can choose based on security, connectors, operations, support and commercial requirements, not on a sales preference.
Trino is the open-source distributed SQL engine. Starburst Enterprise is a commercial distribution based on Trino, with additional product capabilities and vendor support options.
Two procurement and support routes into related technology: partner-led ClickHouse solutions and independent engineering services for the OSS edition.
Comparisons describe capabilities in general terms. Always evaluate the actual version, connectors, workload, support and licensing matrix for your project.
BY TECHNOLOGY
Each card opens the technology page, with its insights, architecture guidance and support options. Partner-led and open-source routes are listed separately.
MongoDB Community Server is source-available (SSPL). Trino and Starburst, and ClickHouse OSS and partner-led ClickHouse, are tagged separately.
EDITORIAL STANDARDS
Technology changes quickly. These rules keep our resources accurate and useful.
Bassirah’s open-source and community support pages and resources describe independent engineering services. They do not imply affiliation with, endorsement by, or official support from open-source project maintainers or foundations. Vendor-backed support applies only where covered by a separate commercial agreement.
Book a private discovery workshop or architecture review. We map the relevant blueprint and decision guide to your workloads, constraints and operating model.
Trino is the open-source distributed SQL engine. Starburst Enterprise is a commercial distribution based on Trino, with additional product capabilities and vendor support options. Bassirah can help evaluate either route based on your security, connectors, operations and commercial requirements.
MongoDB Community Server is source-available under the Server Side Public License for modern releases. It is included under the broader “Open-Source & Community Support” website category rather than labeled an OSI-approved open-source product.
We publish a case study only when the customer has approved it in writing, and we describe outcomes only where they were measured. We do not publish illustrative or composite stories as case studies.
Yes. We run private discovery workshops, architecture reviews, proof-of-concept scoping and enablement sessions. Tell us your objectives and current stack through the contact form and we will propose a format.
Tell us what you are building, operating or modernizing. We will help scope an architecture workshop, platform health assessment, proof of concept, migration or managed support engagement.
