TiDB (The pronunciation is: /'taɪdiːbi:/ tai-D-B, etymology: titanium) is a distributed SQL database. Inspired by the design of Google F1 and Google Spanner, TiDB supports the best features of both traditional RDBMS and NoSQL.

• Horizontal scalability Grow TiDB as your business grows. You can increase the capacity simply by adding more machines.

• Asynchronous schema changes Evolve TiDB schemas as your requirement evolves. You can add new columns and indices without stopping or affecting the on-going operations.

• Consistent distributed transactions Think of TiDB as a single-machine RDBMS. You can start a transaction that crosses multiple machines without worrying about consistency. TiDB makes your application code simple and robust.

• Compatible with MySQL protocol Use TiDB as MySQL. You can replace MySQL with TiDB to power your application without changing a single line of code in most cases.

• NewSQL over TiKV Turn TiKV into NewSQL database.

• Multiple storage engine support Power TiDB with your most favorite engines. TiDB supports many popular storage engines in single-machine mode. You can choose from GolevelDB, LevelDB, RocksDB, LMDB, BoltDB and even more to come.
