Time: February 23rd, 1:00 PM Pacific Time.
TiDB Cloud’s Serverless Tier enables developers to quickly deliver applications at scale without the need for infrastructure management. However, building a serverless database-as-a-service (DBaaS) platform is a complex and challenging task due to latency requirements and significant computing resources.
In this webinar, we’ll explore the challenges of building a serverless DBaaS platform, and how we overcame them by re-architecting several core components of TiDB. We will also demo several key components of our solution, including:
- An isolated pool of stateless components providing high isolation among tenants.
- A shared storage engine layer for large-scale key-value stores supporting high storage utilization.
- A federated file system built on a public object storage service for a cost-efficient, scalable, and highly-durable storage backend.
