Evaluated memsql as poc for our use case
What do you like best about the product?
Good performance, scalability and easy setup. Kafka Integration was easy with native UI
What do you dislike about the product?
Integration with BI tools (tableau, microstrategy)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Data lake with memsql. Performance increased multifold and scaled for large volume of data
MemSQL looks promising and can definitely do a lot more
What do you like best about the product?
Obviously the processing capability. Though we are still in the initial stages, we are beginning to notice how efficient MemSQL is with its lightening quick speeds.
What do you dislike about the product?
Lack of a good GUI. Having trouble with ODBC compatibilities, need to homogenize the drivers.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Part of an organizational initiative to replace legacy work horses with MemSQL. Again, efficiency is the key.
Manage a huge data amount in ram
What do you like best about the product?
Store data across RAM's cluster and could access It really fast
What do you dislike about the product?
Some strange behaviour like Primary Keys disorder in past upgrade.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Manage huge amount of data fast than others.
Perfect for our use case!
What do you like best about the product?
We, a Big 4 accounting firm, use MemSQL for rapid creation and destruction of clusters. MemSQL's speed and reliability are key for our use case since speed is our priority.
What do you dislike about the product?
Getting used to using a shard key for our tables was a little slow for teammates to adopt.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Not having to keep clusters active saves time and money. MemSQL speed enables that competitive advantage.
Great product
What do you like best about the product?
The similarity to mysql. very clever architecture. very easy to use Kafka with im
What do you dislike about the product?
The time that take for first query.
The time that take to query with temp table (and in mySql is work very quick)
The time that take to query with temp table (and in mySql is work very quick)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Quickness of queries, use one query that contain all (without temp tables)
Recommendations to others considering the product:
why using temp tables is doesn't work well in memsql
Real time analytics
What do you like best about the product?
Distributed columnar database which allow online analytics queries.
Fast insert and update data volums
Fast insert and update data volums
What do you dislike about the product?
No foreign keys (at least as a hint) to allow distributing tables which share the same key at the same nodes.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Real-time Querying a big data volume
Simple to deploy and operate in modern micro service architecture
What do you like best about the product?
Simple to deploy, administer and operate with the highest performance to fulfill client requests. Fits well into the microservice and container-based application with the reliability you can count on. Capable to scale with the application demand. Easy to administer with the centralized tool and reactive web UI.
What do you dislike about the product?
The backup and restoration can be a bit challenging. Simultaneous extraction of the back up can be a challenge with large scale deployment. lack of logging on deployment failures which are related to environmental factors. Requirements on internet access make it difficult to deploy in a closed network environment.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Increase in operation performance.
Fast and Furious
What do you like best about the product?
Having worked on the database for a quite a good time, I believe it is really going to be standing with its flag high. Its really fast, wonderful optimization, lots of flexibility and overall is very agile to git into the needs of small to large enterprises.
What do you dislike about the product?
At present not many bloggers or its own forum which can really help the developers and architects for a quick resolution. Mostly relying on MYSQL posts to get the resolution.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are currently dealing with changing the existing solution of Wealth management on Sybase to MemSQL. Their primary problems is the scalability and the performance. We have realized both benefits at this stage and nearing to production implementation.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would suggest them, if they have the below problems then they should start engaging the MemSQL and go ahead with a POC and see by themselves rather than just relying on feed backs and comments. The range of issues could be:
1) Scalability
2) Real Time integration
3) Real Time Datawarehousing
4) Highly performing BI Platform.
5) Structured and unstructured data handling
7) SLA breaches in Webservices
to name a few which could be the trigger points.
