SingleStore, the only database you will ever need, makes its Gartner MQ Debut
Yesterday SingleStore achieved a significant milestone. We made our debut in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Cloud Database Management Systems (CDBMS). This is very exciting for us. DB-Engines.com lists 360 database vendors, only 20 of those made it onto this esteemed list.

We owe this recognition first to our customers who have chosen SingleStore. We thank you for your trust and commitment to our product and for believing in our vision. Second, we owe it to our partners, for embracing the integration of SingleStore into your solutions. And finally we owe it to our growing team, for your incredible passion, integrity, and drive. We’re on an exciting journey, and such strong support is instrumental as we navigate this lively market.
A common workaround has been to ‘duct-tape’ multiple single-purpose databases together to achieve the scale, performance, and specific features needed to handle such workloads. But this causes database sprawl, sacrifices performance, and increases IT complexity and/cost. This is not ideal and is becoming more of a burden than a boon for any organization to manage.
I believe the majority of the applications in the future will be data-intensive by default. The builders of these applications will be expected to provide superb digital experiences for their customers, and demand has never been higher for fast, accurate decisions at reduced cost and complexity. A new ultra-fast modern database — one that is built for the cloud, is scalable, supports any data model, and is based on a relational foundation — is needed to keep up. Enter SingleStore, the Only Database You Will Ever Need
We’re on a mission to challenge this fragmented cloud database market and streamline the way companies store and process data. We’re taking off like a rocket ship and the sky’s the limit.
