SingleStore, formerly known as MemSQL, has introduced the SingleStore Pro Max database, integrating new capabilities to support generative AI applications and retrieval augmented generation (RAG) use cases, building on its existing vector support since 2017.
The database, known for its Hybrid Transactional and Analytical Processing (HTAP) capabilities, enhances support for vector search across structured and unstructured data, with faster and more accurate algorithms, such as product quantization, Hierarchical Navigable Small World, and Approximate Nearest Neighbor, promising increased accuracy and speed for search and gen AI applications.
The SingleStore Pro Max also includes enhanced change data capture (CDC) capabilities to integrate data from MySQL, MongoDB databases, and Apache Iceberg based data lakes, supporting partnerships with leading vendors, such as IBM and Snowflake, to enable easier integration of data from various sources into a single database.
