You built your app on MySQL or PostgreSQL, but with user growth, performance has deteriorated. You can’t scale out and offloading queries to other databases is costly.
Replacing single-node databases with SingleStore will speed up your application and you'll be able to scale horizontally, boost productivity and reduce costs. It’s one platform for transactions, analytics, search and more.
With its wire compatibility for MySQL (and Maria DB), SingleStore is a drop-in replacement for MySQL.
Steps
- Sign up for SingleStore Cloud Trial
- Load data from MySQL to SingleStore using Change Data Capture.
- Point your application to SingleStore
- Test app functionality and performance (or benchmark using TPC methodologies)
- [Bonus]: Optimize database performance using indexes and keys

“We had worked with other scalable databases, but we always ran into an issue that they were very good for either writing or reading, but not both. The other problem we ran into was cost. The biggest reason we picked SingleStore came down to cost. The other databases couldn’t perform the way we wanted them to cost-efficiently,”
