the open-source, cloud-native, distributed SQL database designed for modern applications.

TiDB is an open-source, cloud-native distributed SQL database that offers horizontal scalability, high availability, and MySQL compatibility. It features HTAP capabilities with both row-based (TiKV) and columnar (TiFlash) storage engines, distributed transactions with ACID compliance, and can be deployed on-premises, in public clouds, or on Kubernetes. The database supports real-time analytics, automated failover through Raft consensus, and provides migration tools for easy transition from MySQL applications.
