Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Oracle, SAP and others in Relational Databases Tools."The solution returns data quickly, and data retrieval is fast in kdb+."
"The paramount advantage is the exceptional speed."
"It's a distributed relational database, so it does not have a single server, it has multiple servers. Its architecture itself is fast because it has multiple nodes to distribute the workload and process large amounts of data."
"The product can automatically reinstall and reconfigure in case of a shutdown."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to create pipelines, streamline and extract data from the pipelines."
"The product's initial setup phase was pretty straightforward, with no complex processes."
"The ability to store data in memory is a standout feature, enhanced by robust failover mechanisms."
"MemSQL supports the MySQL protocol, and many functions are similar, so the learning curve is very short."
"The solution should have a more user-friendly user interface."
"Poor key distribution can significantly impact performance, requiring a backward approach in design rather than adding tables incrementally."
"There should be more pipelines available because I think that if MemSQL can connect to other services, that would be great."
"Having the ability to migrate servers using a single command would be extremely beneficial."
"It is not the optimal choice for direct data collection through queries, and it's more suited for aggregation tasks."
"We don't get good discounts in Pakistan."
"The product can be developed further to provide more appropriate output to users as it is one of the areas where there are shortcomings."
"For new customers, it's very tough to start. Their documentation isn't organized, and there's no online training available. SingleStore is working on it, but that's a major drawback."
