Legacy databases weren’t built for today’s FinTech demands. As digital services become more personalized, intelligent, and compliance-intensive, infrastructure must do more than just store data. It has to scale seamlessly, operate without interruption, and support real-time decisions.
This white paper explores how FinTech leaders are using distributed SQL, and specifically TiDB, to modernize their data architecture. From global payment processors to digital banks and embedded finance pioneers, discover how next-gen platforms are eliminating downtime, simplifying operations, and accelerating product velocity. You’ll learn:
-
- Why traditional RDBMS and sharded NoSQL systems fall short in multi-tenant, real-time FinTech environments
- How TiDB provides elastic horizontal scalability, strong ACID consistency, and mixed workload processing
- How companies like Plaid, Square, and SB Payment Service have reimagined infrastructure for performance, resilience, and growth
- Best practices for deploying distributed SQL in production including cloud-native and hybrid strategies
Whether you’re solving for real-time fraud detection, regulatory compliance, or massive traffic spikes, this guide offers a clear path forward for FinTech teams looking to innovate with confidence.
