Overall Satisfaction with SingleStore

We are an analytics SaaS product and currently use Singlestore as our primary database. Customer data from different sources - website, ad platforms, CRM are streamed into singlestore and our end users can directly query this data from our web application. Queries are run against the singlestore database which helps us in streamlining the ingestion and analytical use cases.

The core business problems being solved by Singlestore are - having a unified database for customer data, running low latency queries and serving responses within tight SLAs to our clients
  • Single database which can handle data ingestion and analytical queries at the same time. Helps achieve a consistent state of the data and power real time analytics
  • Very low latency query responses
  • SQL compatibility
  • Currently the costing happens at the configuration level - S2, S4 etc and is hence not fully elastic. As an end user, I expect the same flexibility as provided by Data warehouse solutions wherein it is truly Pay as much as we use
  • More visibility into Singlestore's feature roadmap and timelines would help in planning as and end user
  • Improved Customer Experience
  • Lower Operational Complexity
SingleStore is 3-5X faster than the previous solution we used and also performs better than other multi cloud competing solutions we have evaluated
SingleStore has lived up to this promise for us as most of our analytical requirements are in a real time, low latency environment.
We selected SingleStore due to its multi cloud nature, SQL compatibility and customer references who operate similar applications as us

Did SingleStore live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of SingleStore go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy SingleStore again?

Yes

Any application which needs 1. Low Latency query responses and 2. Access to real time data would benefit from implementing SingleStore. Use cases which are not time sensitive and can run in adhoc batch mode may be well suited to work off data warehouses. Also, SingleStore helps reduce operational overhead in terms of engineers managing batch and real time flows separately
