Feed: SingleStore Blog. Author: . Over the past year, the pandemic has drastically altered the educational landscape. 55 million K-12 students in the United States suddenly found themselves in online or hybrid learning environments. Educators needed new ways of managing their classrooms, keeping students engaged, and tracking their performance. Some school districts took an ad hoc approach to the software needed to support digital learning. Educators had to learn and log in to multiple applications, adding complexity and inefficiency to an already harrowing time. These solutions also often fell under general-purpose categories and were not always well-suited for the education market. GoGuardian ... Read More

Feed: SingleStore Blog. Author: . SingleStore is announcing the industry's first unified cloud database with the separation of storage and compute. SingleStore’s innovative architecture allows customers to run operational and analytical workloads simultaneously while flexibly scaling resources to power the next generation of data-intensive applications.SingleStore has implemented the separation of Storage and Compute, allowing users to effortlessly scale compute to meet the needs of any workload, while managing storage needs completely independently. Many data warehouses have separated storage and compute, but unlike SingleStore’s Unified database, their designs have sacrificed performance and query latency in doing so. SingleStore is unique in ... Read More

Feed: SingleStore Blog. Author: . Today’s data-intensive applications require a completely new approach to data management. Data-intensive applications share four qualities that are critical to meet user requirements and expectations - ultra-fast ingest, low latency, high concurrency and fast analytics. Often in real-time with streaming data. This moment in time is a pivotal shift in the database industry. With the release of 7.5, SingleStore becomes the first and only database to combine two critical capabilities - separation of storage and compute plus system of record into a single platform. These capabilities, combined with the Universal Storage technology, enable both transactional and ... Read More

Feed: SingleStore Blog. Author: . The pace of global business increases every day, and all business is now fundamentally data-driven. To thrive in this modern digital services economy, it’s imperative to respond to customer requests in real time and access business insights on a second-by-second basis. These requirements are driving the creation and usage of massive volumes of data. As a result, applications across all industries and use cases are becoming increasingly data-intensive. To keep up with the multi-dimensional demands for data, the common solution has been to wire together multiple databases. These separate databases may well be individually fast and ... Read More

Feed: SingleStore Blog. Author: . Separation of storage and compute is an important capability of most cloud native databases. Being able to scale compute independently from storage allows for cost savings as well as improved performance and elasticity. For example, operational databases such as Amazon Aurora and Azure Hyperscale have introduced separate log and storage services that do the work of making the log durable as well as some log maintenance work that would typically be done by the database engine itself. The result is lower network and disk utilization to provide high availability and durability of data. Cloud data ... Read More

However, this can be made even harder by trying to make this work when the cluster connection is coming from a web browser, going through to a SingleStore DB cluster via WebSockets.My goal with this post is to briefly explain how we integrated them all in a very simple and neat way. I am not going to explain Kerberos and SingleStore DB in too much depth. There are plenty of resources explaining what these are.Use CaseSingleStore Studio is a stateless UI to manage ... Read More

Feed: SingleStore Blog. Author: . We moved away from Next.js 11 months ago and haven't looked back! Why did we do it? What challenges did we face along the way? Read on to find out.A few years ago, we started developing our web app using Next.js, a frontend framework built on top of React and Node.js. Even though Next.js is primarily designed for applications that can take advantage of hybrid rendering such as e-commerce websites, we still decided to use Next.js over the alternatives at the time (create-react-app, custom webpack config, or GatsbyJS). The reasons for this were the following:With time, ...
