SingleStore Valuable Features
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.

What makes the support stand out to me is that the UI is interactive and intuitive for first-time users. The team is also good at resolving issues, and I can reach out to them directly by creating a ticket whenever I face any issues.
SingleStore has impacted my organization positively because the output and performance of the app have been improved. I measured that improvement through both faster search time and better user experience based on customer reviews.

Its in-memory storage, distributed architecture, scalability, and failover mechanisms collectively contribute to its exceptional performance and reliability, especially in demanding transactional environments like online and mobile banking systems. The ability to store data in memory is a standout feature, enhanced by robust failover mechanisms. Even in scenarios where all servers experience downtime, it ensures data safety by maintaining a copy on disk.

The paramount advantage is the exceptional speed. Another noteworthy aspect of our experience is that, upon its setup, there aren't any issues that necessitate the intervention of a DBA. In terms of performance, it has proven impressive, particularly in handling complex joins without the need for data shortening. It excels in executing complex SQL operations swiftly.
View full review »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. I heard a client processed 3.5 billion records in seven minutes! Their data ingestion is very high, and SingleStore even markets itself as the world's fastest database.

The most valuable features are:
- MySQL drop-in solution: MemSQL supports the MySQL protocol, and many functions are similar, so the learning curve is very short. Developers were able to code against MemSQL the same day. They configured MemSQL in Docker and were up and running.
- MemSQL built-in pipeline: You can connect MemSQL directly to an S3 bucket and it will ingest its data automatically. There is no need to create a lambda function. It just works. You can connect to Kafka, HDS, and other protocols.
- Support for CTE, Window, Stored Procedures, functions (UDF, Table) are all included. MemSQL is a full-blown database solution.
- Replication: A MemSQL cluster can replicate to another cluster. This is a great feature, allowing you to have one cluster that does all the heavy work, and a Replica for reads.
- MemSQL supports high concurrency, and scaling horizontally is limitless.
- I really like the MemSQL portal (portal.memsql.com). Creating more labs is the best way to introduce people to MemSQL.
The most valuable feature is the ability to create pipelines, streamline and extract data from the pipelines.
