Manyi Lu, Researcher, Alibaba Cloud
POLARDB is fully compatible with Oracle's cloud-native database and features 100% backward compatibility with MySQL. POLARDB separates the computing layer from a shared storage layer, which allows the storage space to automatically scale according to usage. The computing layer adopts a single master - multiple read only replica architecture, and scaling up a compute node or adding a replica only takes a few minutes. The computing nodes and storage nodes are connected with a high-speed network and use the RDMA protocol for data transmission, which means I/O performance never becomes a bottleneck again.
Gui Huang, Senior Technical Expert, Alibaba Cloud
This session will explain how POLARDB X delivers excellent performance at a low cost. PolarDB X is one of Alibaba's self-developed distributed relational databases, serving both Alibaba's businesses and clients. It provides an easily scalable, geo-distributed, highly available, consistent, high-performance and low-cost database service for online transaction processing. PolarDB X embodies Alibaba's self-developed storage engine X-Engine, which stores data in a tiered structure according to different data temperatures.
