Summary

The Lambda Architecture is a design pattern used to manage real-time and historical data concurrently. It forks into two paths: one for streaming (real-time) data and the other for batch data. Many Internet-scale companies, such as Pinterest, Zynga, Akamai, and Comcast, have chosen SingleStore to deliver the high-speed data component of the Lambda architecture. SingleStore can fulfill both sides of the Lambda architecture, supporting real-time streaming and batch services. It delivers real-time analytics on a rapidly changing data set, making it an ideal match for the characteristics of the Lambda Architecture speed service. SingleStore offers scalability through its distributed shared nothing architecture, supports multi-model, multi-mode data ingestion, and provides full ANSI SQL support, including JSON support. Additionally, SingleStore has open source connectors for smooth integration with other data sources, such as Apache Spark and Amazon S3. Customers from various industries have invested in SingleStore to power mission-critical applications, driven by the value of real-time data analysis and the power of SQL.
