MemSQL and Dell Technologies

Dell Technologies deployed MemSQL as part of its innovation effort in building a comprehensive data management platform. With an engine designed for concurrent ingest and analytics, MemSQL provides a real-time system that complements the Dell Technologies data lake.

Customers and companies today expect personalized products and services at real-time speeds. Dell Technologies delivers these experiences internally and externally with analytics-driven applications, such as personalized dashboards for end-users and proactive monitoring of customer accounts. MemSQL is the real-time system powering live data ingest and analytics for these applications.

"The addition of MemSQL to our data lake architecture helps us stream data across numerous sources and accounts, eliminating historical latency in our data flow," said Darryl Smith, Chief Data Platform Architect and Distinguished Engineer, Dell Technologies. "Now, we are able to provide teams with accurate information down to the latest event, and act quickly on behalf of our customers."

MemSQL provides full SQL for universal access while maintaining maximum performance. In addition, MemSQL enables users to do distributed joins and achieve fast query processing. A distinguishing characteristic of the database platform is simultaneous ingest and analytics on fresh data. This embodies the Gartner model of HTAP: Hybrid Transaction Analytical Processing.

"MemSQL helps enterprises like Dell Technologies develop best practices for building real-time analytics capabilities," said Eric Frenkiel, CEO and co-founder, MemSQL. "Ultimately, companies want instantaneous value from data to satisfy customer expectations, and that's what we deliver."
