    We use SQL Compare to troubleshoot performance problems quite a bit since our data model is more like a template and not everything is 100% in sync and customization occurs between different client databases. We continually get pulled into performance issues and the developers will say Client A is performing different than Client B, why? Using SQL Compare, we usually find that one client was tuned and had indexes altered or added that weren't deployed to all clients or other objects weren't deployed correctly during the release. On the other hand, since our data model practices allow client databases to drift I tried to create a new golden image by trying to compare multiple databases based on the same data model and found it to be a very difficult process to complete using SQL Compare. SQL Compare gave me too much information and doesn't allow enough filtering to eliminate a lot of the noise.

    Good for Applications needing instant insights on large, streaming datasets. Applications processing continuous data streams with low latency. When a multi-cloud, high-availability database is required When NOT to Use Small-scale applications with limited budgets Projects that do not require real-time analytics or distributed scaling Teams without experience in distributed databases and HTAP architectures.

    Pros
    Redgate
    • Simple and easy comparison of database schemas and data. Differences can be copied or synced from one database to another with a click of a button.
    • You can save "projects" so that you can easily rerun a previous comparison whenever you need to.
    • It has a very simple, easy to learn interface. I've never needed to read any documentation or watch any tutorials in order to figure out how to do something.

    • Technical support is stellar -- far above and beyond anything I've experienced with any other company.
    • When we compared SingleStore to other databases two years ago, we found SingleStore performance to be far superior.
    • Pipeline data ingestion is exceptionally fast.
    • The ability to combine transactional and analytical workloads without compromising performance is very impressive.

    Cons
    Redgate
    • Pricing.... I wish there was an inexpensive developer version I could buy for myself.
    • Portability.... I would like to use it from a flash drive so I can use it where ever I am asked to work.
    • Unbundled.... This may be available already but I dont' recall I can buy it cheaply as a stand-alone product. Its only part of the bundle - cost effectively.

    • It does not release a patch to have back porting; it just releases a new version and stops support; it's difficult to keep up to that pace.
    • Support engineers lack expertise, but they seem to be improving organically.
    • Lacks enterprise CDC capability: Change data capture (CDC) is a process that tracks and records changes made to data in a database and then delivers those changes to other systems in real time.
    • For enterprise-level backup & restore capability, we had to implement our model via Velero snapshot backup.

    We haven't seen a faster relation database. Period. Which is why we are super happy customers and will for sure renew our license.

    It's a good tool to have, but becomes expensive to buy a user license for each developer.

    [Until it is] supported on AWS ECS containers, I will reserve a higher rating for SingleStore. Right now it works well on EC2 and serves our current purpose, [but] would look forward to seeing SingleStore respond to our urge of feature in a shorter time period with high quality and security.

    SingleStore excels in real-time analytics and low-latency transactions, making it ideal for operational analytics and mixed workloads. Snowflake shines in batch analytics and data warehousing with strong scalability for large datasets. SingleStore offers faster data ingestion and query execution for real-time use cases, while Snowflake is better for complex analytical queries on historical data.

    They have a great community website where you can search for answers but are also very responsive when it comes to direct support.

    The support deep dives into our most complexed queries and bizarre issues that sometimes only we get comparing to other clients. Our special workload (thousands of Kafka pipelines + high concurrency of queries). The response match to the priority of the request, P1 gets immediate return call. Missing features are treated, they become a client request and being added to the roadmap after internal consideration on all client needs and priority. Bugs are patched quite fast, depends on the impact and feasible temporary workarounds. There is no issue that we haven't got a proper answer, resolution or reasoning

    We allowed 2-3 months for a thorough evaluation. We saw pretty quickly that we were likely to pick SingleStore, so we ported some of our stored procedures to SingleStore in order to take a deeper look. Two SingleStore people worked closely with us to ensure that we did not have any blocking problems. It all went remarkably smoothly.

    I've used Visual Studio Database Projects for this type of work in the past with some success, but Redgate SQL Compare is faster, more transparent, and simply easier to use. Faster is self explanatory. More transparent, means that it's much easier to set up your desired options for schema change deployment scripts. Easier to use, It's really dead simple. Start a project, connect your source, connect destination, click compare.

    Greenplum is good in handling very large amount of data. Concurrency in Greenplum was a major problem. Features available in SingleStore like Pipelines and in memory features are not available in Greenplum. Gemfire was not scaling well like SingleStore. Support of both Greenplum and Gemfire was not good. Product team did not help us much like the ones in SingleStore who helped us getting started on our first cluster very fast.

    Return on Investment
    Redgate
    • Makes deployment fairly simple. Cutting our deployment time down.
    • With the SDK, we can customize our deployment process very quickly and easily.
    • History is not great, it does create scripts you can go back and see but it would be nice to have a quicker version view by object to save time.

    • As the overall performance and functionality were expanded, we are able to deliver our data much faster than before, which increases the demand for data.
    • Metadata is available in the platform by default, like metadata on the pipelines. Also, the information schema has lots of metadata, making it easy to load our assets to the data catalog.
