tidb VS dgraph

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 :-)

Dgraph: A distributed and scalable graph database known for high performance. It's a good fit for large-scale graph processing, offering a GraphQL-like query language and gRPC API support.

Dgraph (GraphQL, DQL)

Have you tried dgraph.io?

DGraph – A distributed GraphQL database with a graph backend.

How does it compare to, say grakn (renamed https://vaticle.com/, I think?), or draph (https://dgraph.io/), or Ontotext's GraphDB (https://www.ontotext.com/products/graphdb/), or Datomic?

Consul Connect service mesh has a higher memory footprint, so on a small cluster with e5-medium nodes (2 vCPUs, 4 GB memory), you will only be able to support a maximum of 6 side-car proxies. In order to get an application like Dgraph working, which will have 6 nodes (3 Dgraph Alpha pods and 3 Dgraph Zero pods) for high availability along with at least one client, a larger footprint with more robust Kubernetes worker nodes were required.
