Fast and easy to use!
What do you like best about the product?
Overall it was really simple to use and very fast. Obviously, it's a different use case but I tried the same tutorial in Snowflake and the data pipeline took ~2 minutes compared to just a few seconds in SingleStore.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing at this time to note, the company definitely seems to b e going in the right direction!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Managing large volumes of data migrations without sacrificing speed and quality. SingleStore avoids clunky scripts and is also very easy to test and validate data accuracy.
SingleStore review
What do you like best about the product?
Best thing is you can choose the type of cloud provider you want to work with rather than being restricted to a specific one. Freedom to use any provider gives a lot more flexibility for application porting.
What do you dislike about the product?
Just a User experience flaw Message appearing on top while the cluster was building up was confusing. Should have been more visible.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mainly to get away from Prem systems. I would add more options to import data from. Like, maybe from the HDFS system.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is an easy solution to start soon.
Works great! It is incredibly speedy for data migration tasks, and incredibly user-friendly :)
What do you like best about the product?
The speed of the queries/ the ease of use! The SQL query editor works perfectly and has great error logs
What do you dislike about the product?
I was confused about the profiling feature, why it could not show me in real-time the resources being used ” which I’ve shared with our team to add to our Roadmap / checklist of planned upgrades
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helped me with data migration and simple data extraction in record time. I can now complete large queries much faster than before, and free up my time this way!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you need to collect large amounts of data in a fast and efficient manner, then SingleStore does a great job!
SingleStore is Super Seamless
What do you like best about the product?
I liked the layout of the tutorial. The plentiful examples helped understand the service.
What do you dislike about the product?
I didn't like how some of the instructions were misleading. I wasn't sure if I was supposed to upload the mentioned excel file or not.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I needed a service that could handle scalability concerns and something that could be set up quickly.
Managed Database Service With Quick Setup For Processing Large Volumes Of Data Easily
What do you like best about the product?
1. Good database service with quick setup and a good range of cloud providers and compute resource sizes to choose from.
2. Data import is easy from cloud storage layers like S3 using pipelines
3. Data load and query performance is quick.
4. The UI is clean and intuitive.
5. Data migration is made simple. For example, it is possible to offload data from RDS MySQL to S3 and then create new pipelines in SingleStore to automatically ingest the data.
Data ingestion is done in seconds. In addition, it is possibility to easily load data from on-premise instances too using mysqldump. It even takes care of the table ddl generation. Since SS is compatible with MySQL data types, the table replication is very simple.

What do you dislike about the product?
The UI only allows one SQL Editor tab at a time. It would be a great feature to be able to edit multiple sql scripts in the same time but in separate tabs.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Processing and analyzing large volumes of clickstream data
Cheat code for speeding up your database queries
What do you like best about the product?
Two things:
1. The simplicity and speed of setting up a SingleStore environment.
2. The SQL performance increase you get straight off the bat.

What do you dislike about the product?
It can be a little bit on the pricey side for large instances.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Typically we look at SingleStore when query performance on large datasets is bad on MySQL/Aurora. Moving to SingleStore is almost like a cheat code on some occasions!
Lightening fast Database with elegant UI
What do you like best about the product?
The mere speed of data load is what appealed the most i.e 2800000000 rows were loaded in less than a minute with what test case i had
What do you dislike about the product?
As of now i did not find any downsides because the system has been well thought during design
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The biggest problem is to loaded inter system data witn different formats. The most used place would be different ETL stages for Datawarehousing
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Just explore it yourself to see the great product
Looks like a great product!
What do you like best about the product?
The different connection offerings for loading data from multiple data sources including the easy to use built in connector.
The speed out of the box without even adding sharding keys.
The UI is clean and easy to work with.

What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing so far.
Would be interested to test more how the connector handles custom types during its automatic table creation.

Very user-friendly, high-performance data analytics solution
What do you like best about the product?
The onboarding experience and how easy it is to get started. As someone who works with many clients, I particularly liked the ability (and ease) to quickly spin up a temporary database and ingest a large amount of data to run queries against. This is extremely useful for short-term (several days to 2 weeks) analytics projects. The logistics of setting up a new database are night & day in comparison to using RDS.
What do you dislike about the product?
"Dislike" is a strong term. After my initial experience with the product, there wasn't anything I particularly disliked, but here are some notes on how I think the user experience could be made better:
- It would be good to get the real time status of a pipeline; when I was running the test data import, the row count of the table kept changing every few seconds as more data was loaded. There was no real way to know when the entire set finished importing.
On this note, it would be great to have a general view of all the queries that are currently running in the database, and their progress. This would come in particularly useful when building applications that run analytics workloads and debugging those applications.
- (UX improvement) support for multiple SQL editor tabs in the web front end would be great, especially considering that the web interface appears to be designed to be the primary method for humans to interact with the database.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
There is a multitude of scenarios where this tooling would be very helpful. Particularly -- read-only queries against massive datasets (for example: if this tool existed five years ago, it would have saved us months of custom PostgreSQL optimization that we had to do and would have likely worked out-of-the-box for what we needed).
Good Cloud Database
What do you like best about the product?
Pipeline creation and its execution. Unified UI for cluster/DB/Queries etc.
What do you dislike about the product?
No dislike but wanted to explore and see query plans in a better format. Wanted to check monitoring.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Data pipelines (Not sure how & where transformations would be handled).
Scalability, easy of use & responsiveness.
