This June, we announced the beta release of TiDB Cloud<\/a>, the fully managed database service provided by PingCAP. TiDB Cloud offers fully managed TiDB, the horizontally scaling, distributed SQL database that processes both transactional and analytical queries well. Our goal is to empower your applications with a reliable database service that responds fast even during traffic peaks<\/strong> \uadf8\ub9ac\uace0 provides real-time analytics on market changes<\/strong> while minimizing your operational costs<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Try TiDB Cloud<\/a> if this sounds like what you’re looking for. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this article, I’ll walk you through what TiDB Cloud offers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/span>Scalable and transactional, also good at analytics<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

TiDB Cloud is built to bring everything great about TiDB to the cloud. Among all things, two features stand out the most\u2014horizontal scalability and Hybrid Transactional\/Analytical Processing (HTAP) capability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

TiDB’s horizontal scalability and MySQL compatibility have led many former Aurora and MySQL users to choose TiDB as their data backbone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With TiDB Cloud, scaling your database out or in could not be easier. When your application traffic surges or drops, you can simply add or remove nodes from your cluster with just a few clicks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

More than that, TiDB is also awesome at analytics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

TiDB adopts a modular architecture<\/a> that separates the SQL computing engine from the storage engine. This makes it a lot easier to independently develop a row store engine (the TiKV<\/a> servers, with data in row format) and a column store engine (the TiFlash<\/a> servers, with data in column format). Then we use standby Raft Learner<\/a> nodes to glue row and column formats together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With row stores, you get fast write speed; with column stores, you aggregate large volumes of data very quickly and get fast query speed. Now you get both in a single TiDB database.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

TiDB Cloud will soon support HTAP (through TiFlash) in September. Stay tuned: you won’t want to miss that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/span>Fully managed is more than simple<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

With TiDB Cloud’s UI, you can deploy a cluster with only a few clicks. Simply pick your cloud provider and region, the number of computing and storage nodes, and you spin up a commercial-grade cluster!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this demo video, we create a cluster in just one minute:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
