What’s in a Name? From MemSQL to SingleStore
Blog post from SingleStore
The company formerly known as MemSQL has rebranded itself as SingleStore, reflecting its expanded scope and scale. The name change is aimed at better representing the company's mission to bring order to complexity in the world of databases. With a focus on high-speed transactional and analytical workloads, SingleStore offers a single store for all data needs, eliminating the need for disjointed data architectures. The company has a rich history, dating back to its founding in 2011, and has evolved from an in-memory, transactional database to a memory-first, single-store architecture. Recent innovations include hybrid search capabilities, compatibility with MongoDB queries, and on-demand platform services with GPUs/CPUs. SingleStore is proud of its roots as MemSQL and continues to innovate, earning recognition such as the 2025 TrustRadius Buyer's Choice Award.
