SingleStore Enables Enterprises to Compare Real-Time Data Against Historical Trends
New Features Enable Easy Exploration at Real-Time Speeds on Large Data Sets with the Fastest Ingestion and Analytical Query Capabilities Available
SAN FRANCISCO, June 19, 2013 - SingleStore, the leader in real-time analytics, today announced the upcoming availability of SingleStore 2.1, which includes new features and enhancements to enable customers to access, explore and increase the value of data, regardless of size or file format. As organizations amass increasing amounts of data, maximizing the value of each data type is key. To meet these demands, SingleStore updated its analytics platform to enable customers to unleash the full potential of Big Data and receive real-time results on analytical queries across both real-time and historical data sets.
"For years, organizations have been bogged down loading data in batches sacrificing real-time analytical capabilities. With SingleStore, it’s now possible to consume real-time events and simultaneously compare that against historical operational data sets. Moreover, the ability to load data stored as flat files on disk into memory has created an ideal experimentation platform by dramatically increasing query performance," said Eric Frenkiel, CEO. "From ingestion to exploration, SingleStore makes deployment simple, increasing reliability and, most importantly, delivering increased value from the data to customers. We are changing the world of Big Data for the better by redefining the in-memory real-time distributed database market, and this product update is yet another proof point."
As the speed at which data is analyzed increases, so does the quality of insight. To increase competitive advantage, organizations must access, explore and attain the greatest value possible from their data. With a real-time database, users can access and explore data instantly, greatly appreciating the value of the data itself. SingleStore is the only database that allows companies to manage the velocity of Big Data transactions without sacrificing the ability to interact with and analyze all data in the system.
