    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.

    Cons
    SingleStore
    • 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.

    • The ability to predefine a colour for a specific graph as a selection option dynamically.
    • The ability to customise the label of a chart, especially with respect to performance related reporting graphs we need an increase in dynamic charting options to meet our more specialised requirements.

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

    Usability
    SingleStore
    [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.

    As mentioned previously, if a newer company is looking for a strong, polished BI tool, Yellowfin would be a great software vendor to consider. Unfortunately, the high cost might be a barrier to these newer companies who dont have any legacy software/agreements such as an EA agreement with Microsoft.

    Performance
    SingleStore
    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.

    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

    They have good support in what they provide. But what they provide is not what is promised. I would stay with them if I can. Be very careful before signing up with them. They are not what they seem in the sales pitches. Be very careful and make sure you test and test before you sign up.

    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.

    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.

    Yellow Fin platform is browser agnostic and is accessible from desktops as well as mobile devices. It is very simple and fast, it is integrated with Big Data, clients do not require a great training. It just works. But it’s easier to have things on the cloud, especially if you need to use different computers. Yellow Fin lacks the cloud feature.

    SingleStore
    • 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.
