cockroach VS tidb

CockroachDB is an open source distributed SQL database designed for scalability and resilience. While it offers SQL databases, CockroachDB is also compatible with PostgreSQL.

CockroachDB - SQL

For example, when you create a serverless postgres database with a platform like CockroachDB or Neon, you effectively get a connection string with a strong password. Anyone can connect to your database from anywhere so long as they have the right connection string. There are no security settings in these services to change this behavior.

> Yes you can on the android emulator. The biggest issue is compu arch in that case.

I can also download VirtualBox and run all Windows programs, that would mean that all Windows apps are Linux apps?

> Yes you can for the most part

You can't statically link glibc: https://github.com/cockroachdb/cockroach/issues/3392

glibc can break stuff: https://www.gamingonlinux.com/2022/08/valve-dev-understandab...

I had binaries break because the newer version if openssl was put under a slightly different name.

Also, worth noting, if you're already using PostgreSQL (or plan to) you might want to take a look at https://www.cockroachlabs.com/ they have a free tier too and CockroachDB has a PostgreSQL interface.

I know that some projects like cockroach use custom build tools like bazel. But we actually really like to use to be able to build our projects simply with the great go toolchain and don't really aim to dive deep into custom build solutions.

CockroachDB is designed to be globally distributed. It has to handle causality when resolving collisions. It has to account for having a write operation to arrive after another and still have time priority because it was sent out a few milliseconds earlier.

Cockroachdb created a go runtime patch which measures the Grunning time of a goroutine: https://github.com/cockroachdb/cockroach/pull/82356. It doesn't entirely solve the problem though.

Our entire backend is written in Go. We've built a platform that allows other companies to offer automatic data syncing to their customers' data warehouses. Go works great for building distributed systems like this (see K8s). We're not the only ones in the space building data intensive applications with Go. Pachyderm, Pinecone, Cockroach Labs and are all also doing it. We've been quite happy with how Go has worked for us.

tidb has been around for a while, it is distributed, written in Go and Rust, and MySQL compatible. https://github.com/pingcap/tidb

Somewhat relatedly, StarRocks is also MySQL compatible, written in Java and C++, but it's tackling OLAP use-cases. https://github.com/StarRocks/starrocks

It's MySQL-Compatible database for scale and real-time analytics https://github.com/pingcap/tidb

We work on a MySQL compatible distributed database called TiDB https://github.com/pingcap/tidb/ and key-value store called TiKV.

TiDB is written in Go and TiKV is written in Rust.

OLTP usually comes with high throughput of transactions, which means usually write(e.g., IUD - insert, update, delete) to read (e.g., select) ratio is above 4 or 5 or even higher. There are some good benchmarks to test OLTP workload like TPC-C (https://www.tpc.org/tpcc/), and some benchmarks to test OLAP workload like TPC-H (https://www.tpc.org/tpch/). For mixed or hybrid OLTP and OLAP (it's called HTAP, see this blog for some background https://en.pingcap.com/blog/the-beauty-of-htap-tidb-and-allo...), TPC-H was originally designed for this, however, it actually doesn't reveal the real world workload with several drawbacks. A newer research work from UC Berkeley proposed a HTAP benchmark called TAOBench (https://www.vldb.org/pvldb/vol15/p1965-cheng.pdf) which is pretty interesting and worthy to check.

For the HTAP systems, as mentioned in the above blog, there are quite a few industrial products, like Google just announced AlloyDB (https://cloud.google.com/alloydb), Snowflake's UniStore (https://www.snowflake.com/workloads/unistore/), and one of the most popular open source projects TiDB (https://github.com/pingcap/tidb) which have been deployed by many business applications.

Hopefully these may help a little bit :-)
