Data Ingestion

Warning

SingleStore 9.0 gives you the opportunity to preview, evaluate, and provide feedback on new and upcoming features prior to their general availability. In the interim, SingleStore 8.9 is recommended for production workloads, which can later be upgraded to SingleStore 9.0.

SingleStore can load data continuously or in bulk from a variety of sources. Popular loading sources include: files, a Kafka cluster, cloud repositories like Amazon S3, HDFS, or from other databases. As a distributed system, SingleStore ingests data streams using parallel loading to maximize throughput.

SingleStore Pipelines is an easy-to-use built-in capability that extracts, transforms, and loads external data using sources such as Kafka, S3, Azure Blob, and filesystems. It is ideal for scenarios where data from a supported source must be ingested and processed in real-time. This makes SingleStore Pipelines a good alternative to third-party middleware for basic ETL operations that must be executed as fast as possible, thus eliminating traditional long-running processes such as overnight batch jobs.

For bulk data load operations, SingleStore offers a LOAD DATA function that imports files in parallel to maximize performance.
