  • vitess

    Vitess is a database clustering system for horizontal scaling of MySQL.

    • MySQL + Vitess I noticed Slack gets by using MySQL because they're using Vites. From Slack's post (https://slack.engineering/scaling-datastores-at-slack-with-vitess/) it seems like they choose Vites because it facilitated a smooth transition because it's built on top of MySQL.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
