SingleStore aims to deliver the world’s fastest distributed SQL database for data-intensive applications: SingleStoreDB, which combines transactional + analytical workloads in a single platform.
We found SingleStore to be significantly superior to bare-bones MySQL as it offers better performance and scalability. It is also richer in terms of the query language supported, stored procedures, and connectivity. We also found it to be more robust than MySQL and with better …
SingleStore is built for fast data ingestion and fast queries against large tables (> billions of rows). This is possible because of the column store engine that SingleStore uses. SingleStore also support a memory engine. Pipelines is also another big advantage. Being able to …

SingleStore has outperformed these in speed and performance. However it is more expensive but has been worth the cost so far.
We knew early on that MySQL (Amazon Aurora) would not be suitable for this workload as it cannot query our time series data as fast as SingleStore. We also use MongoDB Atlas for another application but we could not achieve the raw speed we saw from SingleStore. Our technical …
We were initially using AWS Aurora which worked well at the time but as we grew it just felt like a lumbering beast - even with tier upgrades. We started looking at caching & search options to help make searches faster - we were already using redis. We looked at and even …
Timescale was the biggest alternative option we looked at for SingleStore, however the requirement to learn a new syntax (due to not being SQL compatible) was our biggest pain point.
Supporting a new language would require alterations to the Laravel framework, as this only …

SingleStore is eons faster than other database providers, and it absolutely crushes calculations & aggregations. While other providers may have a few quality of life enhancements over SingleStore, the speed benefits of SS far outweigh the cons. At the end of the day, speed …
SingleStore provides performance for real-time data analytics application where as Snowflake is more for data engineers and not fast enough for real-time data analytics apps.
As I said before, we felt that running queries on BigQuery for every query is really slow, especially from an user point of view. After seeing the drastically improved latency of SingleStore we decided to use to solve this issue. We currently use it to run low volume queries …
We've tried both these above, to solve ingestion and analytical queries. Dynamo was a perfect ingestion service, but it didn't allow us to run intense analytical queries. Aurora helped us run these analytical queries, and ingestion was reasonable, BUT the queries were simply …
Very similar offerings. SingleStore promise a faster query speed and better cost structure. Vector databases is anoter offering that is unique to SingleStore.
SingleStore outperformed both MongoDB and PostgreSQL for OLAP workloads. Its ability to shard data and handle parallel processing of SQL "JOIN" queries across shards is a game changer.
We looked at Microsoft Azure SQL, MariaDB, Vertica, and RedShift. Our criteria were cost and performance. We also needed compatibility with the Azure cloud as this is where our other systems were running. This was in 2020. After approximately three months of evaluation, we …
It seems that SingleStore is good at being able to handle complex queries against large datasets out of the box. In the past, we've had to do quite a bit of manual configuration and database performance tuning, but SingleStore (so far) has seemed to require minimal …
Well honestly, Initially I thought it would be just another SQL Relational Database Management System but when I actually signed up and use SingleStore, I was amazed to see such integration of intuitive and easy-to-use UI and such powerful performance. So, the CSV for cosmetic …
