CelerData Cloud vs. JavaScript vs. Materialize vs. SingleStore Comparison Chart

CelerData is a high-performance SQL engine built to power analytics directly on data lakehouses, eliminating the need for traditional data‐warehouse ingestion pipelines. It delivers sub-second query performance at scale, supports on-the‐fly JOINs without costly denormalization, and simplifies architecture by allowing users to run demanding workloads on open format tables. Built on the open source engine StarRocks, the platform outperforms legacy query engines like Trino, ClickHouse, and Apache Druid in latency, concurrency, and cost-efficiency. With a cloud-managed service that runs in your own VPC, you retain infrastructure control and data ownership while CelerData handles maintenance and optimization. The platform is positioned to power real-time OLAP, business intelligence, and customer-facing analytics use cases and is trusted by enterprise customers (including names such as Pinterest, Coinbase, and Fanatics) who have achieved significant latency reductions and cost savings.

Materialize is a reactive database that delivers incremental view updates. We help developers easily build with streaming data using standard SQL. Materialize can connect to many different external sources of data without pre-processing. Connect directly to streaming sources like Kafka, Postgres databases, CDC, or historical sources of data like files or S3. Materialize allows you to query, join, and transform data sources in standard SQL - and presents the results as incrementally-updated Materialized views. Queries are maintained and continually updated as new data streams in. With incrementally-updated views, developers can easily build data visualizations or real-time applications. Building with streaming data can be as simple as writing a few lines of SQL.
