When I was working at Wag, MySQL had trouble scaling. We were using an M4-10X RDS instance and three replicas. These machines are expensive and with the growth that the company was experiencing, it was clear we would not be able to scale properly.
There were heavy writes done against MySQL that should not have been there; an event table for example. This table was close to 900M rows, taking more than 300GB. I decided to migrate this table to MemSQL, freeing up both lots of space and write resources on MySQL.
After the event table was migrated to MemSQL, using the MemSQL built-in S3 pipeline, the table was compressed down to 30GB.

I use it for managing both transactional and analytical workloads within the same database. In my previous organization, I successfully implemented it for a banking system, where it accommodated transaction-based processes using row store tables and analytical requirements using column store tables. This dual functionality eliminates the need for separate databases for transactions and reporting, streamlining the overall architecture. With SingleStore's distributed architecture, it provides the scalability needed to support diverse workloads effectively.

The issue we encountered was the inability to efficiently extract and evaluate our data from existing databases, causing limitations with Tableau, which struggled to handle datasets exceeding a hundred million records. Consequently, we explored alternative systems and initially attempted to access all data from target systems. In pursuit of faster and more effective data management, we considered Exasol as an alternative OLAP system. Ultimately, we opted for SingleStore.

I worked for a company that outsourced tasks for SingleStore. I mainly worked with one customer who was a video platform. Their primary use case was storing metadata for their videos. They offered recording and playback services for TV shows in the US and Canada, and SingleStore efficiently managed the metadata for all these recordings.
