Important
Self-managed SingleStore will soon transition from version 9.1 RC to version 10. This new semantic versioning scheme will provide SingleStore with finer control over engine and feature releases that were not possible with the current versioning scheme.
In the interim, SingleStore 9.1 RC can be used to preview, evaluate, and provide feedback on the new and upcoming features in SingleStore 10 prior to its general availability. Ahead of this transition, SingleStore 9.0 is recommended for production workloads, which can later be upgraded to SingleStore 10.
Geospatial Types

Important
The space consumed by the path and polygon data in Geography columns is dependent on the complexity of the objects.Geography value consumes 24 bytes per vertex, plus a 64 byte overhead, plus some minor overhead for each “ring” in a multipolygon.
Indexing a Geography object may also consume more space than indexes over other data types.
