FoundationDB vs TiDB: What are the differences?
FoundationDB: Multi-model database with particularly strong fault tolerance, performance, and operational ease. FoundationDB is a NoSQL database with a shared nothing architecture. Designed around a "core" ordered key-value database, additional features and data models are supplied in layers. The key-value database, as well as all layers, supports full, cross-key and cross-server ACID transactions; TiDB: A distributed NewSQL database compatible with MySQL protocol. Inspired by the design of Google F1, TiDB supports the best features of both traditional RDBMS and NoSQL.
FoundationDB and TiDB can be primarily classified as "Databases" tools.
Some of the features offered by FoundationDB are:
- Multiple data models
- Full, multi-key ACID transactions
- No locking
On the other hand, TiDB provides the following key features:
- Horizontal scalability
- Asynchronous schema changes
- Consistent distributed transactions
TiDB is an open source tool with 19.6K GitHub stars and 2.85K GitHub forks. Here's a link to TiDB's open source repository on GitHub.
