Boost authentication and session management with reliable and fast data handling

There is a lot of technical debt in our company, and we need to update to the latest versions. The lack of automation in upgrading clusters from development to production is a concern. A tool for automatically handling such upgrades would reduce operational huddle. Additionally, it would be beneficial if Aerospike had a community version to encourage broader adoption and experimentation.

Supports in-memory data types, storing data on RAM for high performance

For new customers, it's very tough to start. Their documentation isn't organized, and there's no online training available. SingleStore is working on it, but that's a major drawback. Also, technically, SingleStore needs more features on the SQL part. Most SQL boards work in MySQL, and SingleStore integrated all its sequel with MySQL, so nearly 99% of MySQL code runs on SingleStore. But features like TVF and UDL lack depth. Users have to walk into it, and SingleStore has minimal features there. IUDF, TVF, and stored procedures are not as advanced as SQL Server's. That's one thing I would like to see improved.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"It shows better compression and compaction, which is valuable."

"The product can automatically reinstall and reconfigure in case of a shutdown."

"MemSQL supports the MySQL protocol, and many functions are similar, so the learning curve is very short."

"It's a distributed relational database, so it does not have a single server, it has multiple servers. Its architecture itself is fast because it has multiple nodes to distribute the workload and process large amounts of data."

"The most valuable feature is the ability to create pipelines, streamline and extract data from the pipelines."

"The paramount advantage is the exceptional speed."

"The ability to store data in memory is a standout feature, enhanced by robust failover mechanisms."

Cons

"The lack of automation in upgrading clusters from development to production is a concern."

"For new customers, it's very tough to start. Their documentation isn't organized, and there's no online training available. SingleStore is working on it, but that's a major drawback."

"There should be more pipelines available because I think that if MemSQL can connect to other services, that would be great."

"Having the ability to migrate servers using a single command would be extremely beneficial."

"We don't get good discounts in Pakistan."

"Poor key distribution can significantly impact performance, requiring a backward approach in design rather than adding tables incrementally."

"It is not the optimal choice for direct data collection through queries, and it's more suited for aggregation tasks."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We use around half a TB of data and spend approximately $36,000 to $40,000 USD per year on Aerospike."

"I would advise users to try the free 128GB version."

"The product's licensing is not expensive. It is comparable."

"They have two main options: cloud installation and bare-metal installation, each with different pricing models."

"Using it for analytical purposes can be cost-effective in the long run, especially in terms of infrastructure."

"SingleStore is a bit expensive."
