== History ==

In January 2019, the original creators of [[Presto (SQL query engine)|Presto]], Martin Traverso, Dain Sundstrom, and David Phillips, created a [[Fork (software development)|fork]] of the Presto project. They initially kept the name Presto and used the PrestoSQL web handle to distinguish it from the original PrestoDB project. Simultaneously, they announced the Presto Software Foundation. The foundation is a not-for-profit organization dedicated to the advancement of the Presto open source distributed SQL query engine.<ref name="2019psf">{{Cite web|url=https://www.prweb.com/releases/presto_software_foundation_launches_to_advance_presto_open_source_community/prweb16070792presto-software-foundation-launches-to-advance-presto-open-source-community-815915772.htmhtml|title=Presto Software Foundation Launches to Advance Presto Open Source Community|website=PRWeb|access-date=2019-02-01}}</ref><ref name="2019psf2">{{Cite web|url=https://thenewstack.io/prestos-new-foundation-signals-growth-for-the-big-data-sql-engine/|title=Presto's New Foundation Signals Growth for the Big Data SQL Engine|date=2019-01-31|website=The New Stack|language=en-US|access-date=2019-02-01}}</ref>

In December 2020, PrestoSQL was rebranded as Trino. The Trino Software Foundation, code base, and all other PrestoSQL assets were renamed as part of the rebrand.<ref name="2020rename">{{cite web |last1=Traverso |first1=Martin |last2=Sundstrom |first2=Dain |last3=Phillips |first3=David |title=We're rebranding PrestoSQL as Trino |url=https://trino.io/blog/2020/12/27/announcing-trino.html |website=trino.io |access-date=7 September 2021 |language=en |date=27 December 2020}}</ref>
