As a developer who has worked extensively with various databases, including Oracle, MySQL, PostgreSQL, and SQLite, Ero Carrera discovered SingleStore experience while searching for an industrial-strength database that offered the ease of use and speed he experienced at Google. He found SingleStore to be easy to interface with, using standard MySQL libraries and interfaces, and was impressed by its performance on time-series data, which allowed him to achieve near-real-time results. Ero's experience with SingleStore has made him more productive, allowing him to focus on the logic of his pipelines and building analytics dashboards, and he is happy to have come across this technology, which has provided him with a "database experience" similar to what he had at Google.
