Summary

Elephants can't jump, trot, or gallop, but together they can stampede, which is exactly what enterprises are doing to move away from Hadoop. Three industry leaders, Kellogg's, Comcast, and a Tier 1 wealth management firm, have successfully "augmented or retired the elephant" by embracing SingleStore as the successor to Hadoop, achieving game-changing benefits. Kellogg's reduced its ETL process from 24 hours to 43 minutes, an 80x improvement in analytics performance, while improving supply chain dashboards and customer logistics data analysis. Comcast eliminated data bottlenecks to reduce truck rolls, using SingleStore to power fast analytics on streaming data, helping customers in real-time at scale. A Tier 1 wealth management firm built a dashboard that delivers instant query responses in milliseconds, supporting 40,000 concurrent users with ease, while providing five years of historical data for deeper portfolio and market analysis.
