The DB mutex is one of the things I dislike most in #RocksDB, which causes many performance issues. The story will share one battle in #TiKV, which is fought against the DB Mutex. https://t.co/p2oqGE1eVZ #TiDB

#TiDB was built for scale — as an OLTP #database first. Yet it’s funny how many analytics databases benchmark themselves against TiDB to show they’re “the fastest.” So that raises a fun question: Can an OLTP database compete in analytics benchmarks? https://t.co/27h1m3MGLa

Building an AI agent startup? Each agent needs a Database. SQLite? Too limited. RDS? Too expensive. Traditional Serverless? Still overpaying. You need a elastic, truly pay-as-you-go database. That’s TiDB Cloud — born for the AI era. https://t.co/YS6NxzfnOl

A full region outage was once “impossible.” Until AWS US-EAST-1 went dark. That day reminded me — even the strongest clouds have storms So "Do We Really Need RPO = 0 for Regional Disaster Recovery for database services?" https://t.co/Ddfw7jBqIh #TiDB #Database

Two months ago, when Manus's engineering team began discussing certain ideas with us, I knew they were working on something that would astonish the world. I'm thrilled to see this happening and proud that #TiDB made a small contribution. Looking forward to their next miracle.

10 years. From a crazy idea to #TiDB serving customers around the world. This is my ten-year reflection — and my promise for the next decade with TiDB. https://t.co/Ync2IkOjFh #Database #OpenSource

In April, @ManusAI_HQ came to us with an ambitious goal - migrate from MySQL to #TiDB and go live in just one month. Quite challenging, but we've accepted it. In May, their system was live and scaling effortlessly. That’s the power of #TiDB - built to scale with your growth.

At #TiDBSCaiLE 2025, @ManusAI_HQ shared how they scaled from prototype to production with TiDB. 🔥 They migrated their entire data system in just 2 weeks with almost zero code changes. Now they scale compute and storage seamlessly. 🎥 Full session coming soon!

The premium users of databases are no longer humans, but AI agents. This shift from deterministic to non-deterministic systems changes everything. Here’s why #TiDB is the best database for the #AI as a Service(#AIaaS) era. https://t.co/Vkc97A65dT #AIAgents #database

💭 Ever thought about running analytics on live transactional data? No lag, no copying, just instant insight. Distributed SQL makes it possible, and it might just change how you think about your data stack. 💡 #TiDB #DistributedSQL #SQL #Data
