Kelvin  Ben - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior Software Engineer at Honeywell
Real-time analytics has transformed daily decisions and delivers fast dashboards from streaming data
The best features SingleStore offers include fast data recovery and data compression by 80 percent. Having the information in sheets helps me to process the information quickly. Simplicity in T-SQL is another aspect I appreciate. Data recovery and sheet-based processing help my team on a day-to-day basis by enabling us to handle information efficiently. I would like to add that the data compression by 80 percent helps us in an excellent way since we are very fast in obtaining the data for our dashboards and the compression of the information is great. SingleStore has impacted my organization positively by enabling us to run low-latency analytics and model-driven use cases at scale, which is quite difficult for OLAP and OLTP databases alone. It has been very helpful because our internal clients are happy to have the data and make data-driven decisions easily. Making decisions based on data within a two-hour delay to the transactional database is excellent since we went from twenty-four hours to two hours. I think the best contribution is decision-making with data that is close to reality. Reducing that delay from twenty-four hours to two hours has significantly affected my team and business outcomes by increasing productivity. We have been able to serve all our customers, and they are very happy. We can deliver to them on time.

Managed vector search has reduced latency and now accelerates CNN-based RAG workflows
The best feature of Zilliz Cloud is that it helps in very high-performance vector search, and it is also very scalable, with very low latency that helps provide faster results. The deployment of Milvus is very easy because it is managed there, so I did not need to take care of anything. These are the major things that I feel are very important. Zilliz Cloud has positively impacted my organization because previously, when I was not using it, there was a little lag in the output of the search due to the lack of a proper vector search setup, and maintaining the vector search was very hard, requiring me to create a model, deploy it, and connect everything. It helped me a lot by using managed Milvus, which simplifies my management tasks.
