SingleStore speeds up my daily workflow
What do you like best about the product?
I use Singlestore daily, and it has great features. Their docs are very thorough, which makes it easy to find answers to question. Their support is very responsive.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of things inherent with the implementation of SingleStore make some tasks tedious, such as updating an enum column.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
SignleStore allows our users to get data fast. The MySql flavor it uses makes it easy for us to query the data and find insights quickly. It also allows us to ingest massive amount of data quickly.

Database that changed our company
What do you like best about the product?
Singlestore has made our data processing much easier and faster with its tooling
What do you dislike about the product?

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Data Processing -> makes cleaning & processing data easier
Singlestore review
What do you like best about the product?
The fact that it's the best of both worlds of row store and column store. It's easy to use and setup. We've been using it for a lot of our high throughput use cases and it has worked wonders.
What do you dislike about the product?
A lot of the technology and functionality as it comes with a proprietary database is under the hood which makes is difficult to debug issues. And it takes a lot of back and forth with their support team to explain the issue and hopefully get a resolution.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Giving us the best of both worls of row store and column store so that we can do real time aggregates as well as individual row retrieval.
Great near real-time analytics database
What do you like best about the product?
I have had a great experience using SingleStore. It can ingest massive amounts of change events from Kafka and keep up. It ingests this data within 3-5 seconds of update in our main application. Most of the queries we send to SingleStore come back within 5 seconds and work well with highly concurrent (thousands of customers) environments. For providing customer-facing dashboards and reporting, it is really fast and everything I expect. It also has a great ecosystem with its managed service running in AWS, Azure, and GCP, with support for customer-managed keys and other enterprise features we need. It also has cool newer features like database branching and fast JSON queries (it treats JSON like any other columnar data). It is like a really fast version of Snowflake or Databricks. It is easy to get up and going with SingleStore pipelines (no external tools like Kafka Connect or Apache Flink are required since they have SingleStore pipelines), and customer support is great too when I wasn't able to figure it out on my own.
What do you dislike about the product?
It isn't open source, which I prefer. Despite being proprietary, they do make it fairly easy to use their free version on Docker or their managed free forever solution (but quite limited). The sales/procurement process can be a bit onerous too.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Faster ingest and query speed than most competing products. This results in a better user experience for our customers since they are often creating ad-hoc dashboards in our product and expect the experience to be snappy. As they are building new charts, reports, and dashboards, they iterate through different versions and tweak the settings, and each time they do this, they want the queries to come back within a second or two. Then, when they have 5-10 widgets on a dashboard, they expect those to come back within a couple of seconds. This great experience enables us to democratize reporting for our users and are delighted with our work management product.
User Friendly and Reliable in-memory DB
What do you like best about the product?
Accessing and Loading relational data into tables is pretty efficient, reliable and fast.
Having Singlestore employee as a consultant in the organisation helped us get answers from Singlestore to resolve a lot of minor issues and questions we had with this product.

What do you dislike about the product?
It lacks replication product to replicate data on table by table basis from one cluster to another remote cluster.
We need a reject file created for all rejected rows during pipeline load of millions of rows of a table, instead of abending at the first rejected row.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Transferring Data from Mainframe DB to in-memory DB on distributed platform is our long term goal. Also one of directive from our management is to have a never-down DB and Singlestore is the DB we are going to use to achieve it for our application.
Successfull Co-Innovation Partnership
What do you like best about the product?
Query and Ingestion Speed at Scale over Multi-Model Storage w/ Simplicity .
What do you dislike about the product?
Medium UX for Self-Hosted versions and medium materialization features
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Chatbot, Customer Mobile Banking RT Analytics , Customer Intelligence for RT decision (multiple scenarios)
Strong, robust and fast database engine
What do you like best about the product?
Singlestore is a very strong relational database management system which produces very good results in terms of speed and robustness. It have many unique features that make it a good system for data consumption and processing. It is also API -compatible with MySQL dialect so you can use mysql-targeted tools to query data on SingleStore.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's not the cheapest engine you could get but generally, in terms of cost-value ratio, I feel it's a good match. Also, backup on a self-hosted solution is not always easy to implement since it needs to backup large amounts of data.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using SingleStore as our main database engine both for online transaction processing (OLTP) and for data warehousing. It has proved to be a robust database engine with great performance and many useful features.
Wicked fast and easy to use database
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to build pipelines, fast migration path from mysql, easy to learn and understand how it works. Benefits of a rowstore and speed of a columnstore.
What do you dislike about the product?
Backups do not work well- we have had several issues with these.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Allows very fast ingestion of 300M digital asset exchange trades daily so we can create real-time prices.
The Best All-in-One Database Solution
What do you like best about the product?
I love how I'm able to use one database for transactional data (like storing users, and any associated data) alongside analytical data (like mass querying records).
Every other solution I looked at required me to maintain 2 seperate databases, certainly not ideal in any means..
Every other solution I looked at required me to maintain 2 seperate databases, certainly not ideal in any means..
What do you dislike about the product?
Their managed solution starts out hefty, and I do wish they had cheaper options available. However they have a fantastic self-hosted version, which means there is no downsides to SingleStore.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Being able to use one centralised database for both types of data, saves me a ton of headache while also harnessing out of the box performance gains with SingleStore.
Singlestore Power of Analytics
What do you like best about the product?
Singlestore is a MySQL drop-in solution. It supports Mysql Protocol. This database cluster solution allows you to scale horizontally and also vertically. You can add aggregators to scale high concurrency or leaf nodes to shard your data (Singlestore can rebalance the data with just 1 SQL command). Singlestore supports a fast array of analytical functions. You can also ingest data from their pipeline feature. Using SQL, you can create pipelines to connect to S3, Kafka, HDFS, Azure, and more and consume data in real-time without locking tables.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are some limitations. You cannot use Foreign Keys (FK). Modifying clustered keys is not supported. Altering tables also has some limitations. Auto-incremental values are not always sequentials.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Real-time or near real-time analytics. Singlestore can ingest data using pipelines via tables or stored procedures. The non-lock mechanism allows users to query tables in real-time. Singlestore columnstore engine provides excellent compression (up to 80-90%), and aggregated queries just fly !
