SingleStore Valuable Features
Each time, the user cannot write an SQL query for everything owing to certain time constraints. I feel that things can be done quickly in SingleStore since a written command can auto-generate a SQL query in real-time. The speed of the product is good. The support offered by SingleStore is seamless. SingleStore can be used with multiple software tools.

The most valuable features are:
- MySQL drop-in solution: MemSQL supports the MySQL protocol, and many functions are similar, so the learning curve is very short. Developers were able to code against MemSQL the same day. They configured MemSQL in Docker and were up and running.
- MemSQL built-in pipeline: You can connect MemSQL directly to an S3 bucket and it will ingest its data automatically. There is no need to create a lambda function. It just works. You can connect to Kafka, HDS, and other protocols.
- Support for CTE, Window, Stored Procedures, functions (UDF, Table) are all included. MemSQL is a full-blown database solution.
- Replication: A MemSQL cluster can replicate to another cluster. This is a great feature, allowing you to have one cluster that does all the heavy work, and a Replica for reads.
- MemSQL supports high concurrency, and scaling horizontally is limitless.
- I really like the MemSQL portal (portal.memsql.com). Creating more labs is the best way to introduce people to MemSQL.

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. I heard a client processed 3.5 billion records in seven minutes! Their data ingestion is very high, and SingleStore even markets itself as the world's fastest database.
