Building the Future of Scalable Databases: A Conversation with PingCAP and Atlassian

Подробнее о видео

I had an insightful discussion at the PingCAP booth at AWS re:Invent with Max Liu, CEO and Co-founder of PingCAP, and Sergey Mineyev, Senior Principal Software Engineer at Atlassian!

We explored the evolution of TiDB, the challenges of scaling databases for modern businesses, and how PingCAP is enabling organizations like Atlassian to overcome complex data challenges.

Key highlights from our conversation:

-- Max’s perspective on how the challenges that inspired TiDB’s creation a decade ago remain relevant today, and how PingCAP is building for the next decade to ensure businesses can scale without re-platforming.
-- Sergey’s insights into Atlassian’s scale challenges and why they chose TiDB to tackle them, highlighting key outcomes like reduced complexity and improved resource management.
-- A deep dive into scalability dimensions, including data volume, query performance, concurrent connections, schema changes, and backup/recovery, and how PingCAP addresses these across industries.
-- Real-world examples of customer success, from simplifying architectures and reducing costs to enabling developers to focus on innovation rather than infrastructure.

This conversation was a masterclass on solving modern database challenges and driving innovation in data management.
