Client Version Support Policy

SingleStore is MySQL compatible and provides native software (drivers, connectors, etc.) which may provide specific enhancements to SingleStore's performance or features. The native software must be installed on the system to leverage these optimizations.

SingleStore regularly releases new versions to address bugs and introduce new features. SingleStore recommends using the latest version of SingleStore drivers and connectors.

SingleStore maintains a driver and connector version support policy with the following guidelines:

  • SingleStore generally supports each driver and connector release for at least two years, except when more recent releases provide critical fixes for security or performance issues. SingleStore may not support connectivity with versions older than this.

  • SingleStore recommends using versions released within the scope of SingleStore's support policy. SingleStore does not distribute versions that are no longer supported.

  • Latest driver and connector releases provide performance enhancements, new features, and bug fixes. They are not retroactively made available in the older versions.

  • For critical fixes, SingleStore may require updating the driver or connector to the latest version or a version higher than the oldest supported version.

This policy does not apply to drivers and connectors provided by third-party companies outside of SingleStore's control. Contact the respective third-party provider for their latest support policies.
