TiDB Cloud Dedicated architecture diagram showing a unified distributed SQL database with decoupled compute and storage. At the top, the TiDB Web Console and TiDB API connect to a scalable compute engine that supports both OLTP (online transaction processing) and OLAP (real-time analytics) workloads. The compute layer interacts with row-based storage for transactional processing and columnar storage for analytical queries, synchronized through the Raft consensus algorithm for high availability and strong consistency. On the left, application servers, external databases, and data files migrate or import data into TiDB. On the right, Change Data Capture (CDC) streams data to downstream systems, analytics platforms, and BI dashboards. The architecture highlights TiDB as a cloud-native, MySQL-compatible distributed database designed for HTAP, real-time analytics, and scalable AI-ready workloads.

TiKV + TiFlash Architecture

How TiDB Cloud Dedicated Works

TiDB Cloud Dedicated is built on a modern Distributed SQL architecture that separates compute and storage while preserving ACID transactions and strong consistency. It combines TiKV for transactional workloads and TiFlash for real-time analytics, enabling a true HTAP database in a fully managed, single-tenant cluster.

01-distributed-sql

Distributed SQL core (with ACID transactions)

TiDB distributes data automatically across nodes while maintaining ACID-compliant transactions and strong consistency via Raft.
  • Horizontal scaling without manual sharding
  • High availability across zones
  • MySQL compatibility for easy migration
02-tikv-storage

TiKV for Distributed Transactional Storage

TiKV is the row-based storage engine optimized for OLTP workloads.
  • Low-latency reads and writes
  • Automatic replication and failover
  • Linear scale as data grows
03-tiflash-htap

TiFlash for HTAP Analytics on Fresh Data

TiFlash provides columnar storage for analytics directly on live transactional data.
  • Real-time analytics without ETL
  • Unified OLTP + OLAP architecture
  • Consistent results on fresh data
04-networking-isolation

Networking & Isolation: VPC Peering and Single-Tenant Controls

Dedicated clusters ensure predictable performance and workload isolation.
05-cloud-native-ops

Cloud-native Operations (Kubernetes-aligned patterns)

Designed for cloud-native scale and fully managed by TiDB powered by PingCAP.
  • Independent compute and storage scaling
  • Zero-downtime upgrades
  • Automated monitoring and failover
