As a hosted option, I wish I had more control over the cluster configuration, specifically regarding some of the more advanced options. Trino is extremely flexible and powerful, but some of this functionality is gated on the Galaxy platform. Most users and admins will never need these features, but on occasion I have encountered issues that could have been resolved by a configuration change in five minutes rather than redesigning a data product. That said, I have a high degree of expertise with the tool, and this is more of a quibble than a major issue.

I am able to connect Starburst Galaxy to other tools such as Tableau using the connector, but I would like to see better support for spinning up a cold Starburst Galaxy cluster via Tableau, as it currently just times out. I would like the Starburst connector in Tableau to have the capability to hold the connection open while Starburst Galaxy starts up.
