Overall Satisfaction with SingleStore (formerly MemSQL)

We use it to power a custom reporting and analytics solution as part of a larger product offering we sell. It has low enough latency to power impressive dashboards for our end users.

  • Processes large amounts of data with very low latency.
  • The support department is fantastic.
  • The developer experience is lacking. Running developer instances locally requires a lot of RAM.
  • It unstuck development on our key analytics initiative.
We selected SingleStore instead of a number of Hadoop based solutions, RedShift and Imply.

SingleStore hits a sweet spot. It is easy to develop against by being Mysql compatible. It is easy to get started with by being easy to install and test with datasets. It is consistently fast and any performance problems are easy to reason about.
We have a key product based on this.
Our datasets are not big enough to require large clusters.
