Our take
Organizations today are swimming in data, and often find difficulties with data management. SingleStore provides a converged data platform for transactions and analytics, which organizations can use to process and analyze their most important time-critical application workloads spanning transactions, analytics and AI.
The company can ingest and transform millions of events per day while also analyzing billions of rows of data using standard SQL, while its users can query the records in real-time. The hybrid architecture and speed of its technology are what differentiates it from competitors such as Oracle and SAP.
Rebranded from MemSQL to SingleStore, the new vision for the company is the ability to access data anywhere, even beyond the SingleStore platform, through global federated access that provides greater flexibility and further simplifies cloud data management for organizations.
