Open Intelligence, Open Data: SingleStore delivers Zero-copy Compute on Apache Iceberg
SingleStore is announcing its third-generation cluster architecture built on a Zero-Copy data fabric with native Apache Iceberg support. The new Gen3 clusters allow compute to attach directly to any database without copying or duplicating data, enabling HTAP workloads — transactional, analytical, vector search, and AI inference — to run against open data in place. Key features include Smart Read Replicas for isolated scaling, Database Branching for zero-copy dev/test environments, and Smart DR for cross-region disaster recovery without idle infrastructure costs. Existing customers are automatically upgraded with no migration required. The pitch is that organizations can build agentic AI applications directly on open Iceberg data without moving it into proprietary silos.
