      (AWS Aurora / GCP Spanner)
      COCloud TiDB Service
      （Top Recommendation）
      Scalability
      Vertical only; sharding is difficult
      Mostly 1-write/many-read; write bottlenecks
      Native distributed;
      infinite scaling
      Cloud Agility
      Limited to specific data centers
      Vendor Lock-in (Single Cloud)
      Multi-cloud/hybrid deployment
      Real-time Analytics
      Requires ETL; hours of latency
      Requires separate OLAP products
      HTAP; second-level data analysis
      Expert Operations
      High manual tuning overhead
      Platform only; no business optimization
      5x8 Managed & Architect Advisory
      Total Cost (TCO)

      Opaque traffic & API fees
      Pay-as-you-go; save 30%+ budget

      MySQL vs TiDB

      TiDB's distributed SQL design replaces complex manual MySQL workarounds with built-in elasticity and strong consistency.

      Sharding
      Scaling
      Consistency

      MySQL

      • Relies on manual cross-database configuration, complex shard maintenance
      • Requires custom logic and architectural dimensions
      • High maintenance costs

      TiDB

      • Built-in automatic sharding, seamless data distribution across nodes
      • No manual partitioning or application code changes needed
      • Focus on development, not data distribution

      Enterprise Use Cases

      Digital Finance & Banking

      Financial institutions require strong consistency and real-time risk control for high-frequency trading and regulatory compliance.

      • Dual-site & three-center HA/DR.
      • HTAP enables second-level anti-fraud analysis.
      • Passed strong consistency ACID testing.

      Smart E-com & Retail

      For traffic peaks during shopping festivals, TiDB lets you say goodbye to complex sharding, achieving seamless horizontal scaling.

      • Elastic scaling to handle 10x traffic spikes.
      • Zero-downtime schema change.
      • High-precision real-time inventory deduction system.

      Global Game Development

      Unpredictable launch growth requires massive storage for behavior logs and real-time global sync.

      • PB-scale single cluster.
      • Cross-region deployment for global game servers.
      • Operation and maintenance labor costs reduced by approx. 40%.

      TiDB FAQ

      What is the main difference between TiDB and traditional MySQL?

      Traditional MySQL often requires manual "Sharding" when facing massive data, which leads to extreme complexity in development and maintenance. TiDB is a distributed database that supports horizontal scaling like building blocks—capacity and performance can be added at any time. To your application, it acts like an "infinitely scalable MySQL."

      Is TiDB truly fully compatible with MySQL?

      Yes, TiDB supports the MySQL 5.7 protocol and the vast majority of its syntax. Your applications (Java, Go, Python, etc.) can connect directly without changing drivers. COCloud provides professional migration assessment services, including syntax compatibility scans before launch, to ensure a zero-risk transition.

      What is HTAP, and how does it benefit my business?

      HTAP stands for Hybrid Transactional/Analytical Processing, allowing "Transactions (OLTP)" and "Analytics (OLAP)" to be handled within a single database. This means you no longer need to perform ETL to move data to a data warehouse; you can run real-time reports directly on TiDB. For example, an e-commerce platform can analyze sales trends in seconds without affecting order processing speed.

      Why should I purchase TiDB through COCloud instead of deploying it myself?

      Self-deploying distributed systems requires high operational costs and expertise. Choosing COCloud offers several advantages:
      • Expert Operations (O&M): Our team has extensive experience in distributed architecture, providing 24/7 monitoring and alerts.
      • Architecture Optimization: Tailored TiKV/TiFlash configuration advice based on your specific business scenarios.
      • Compliance & Billing: Localized TWD/USD payment options and official invoicing to resolve financial pain points.

      Is migrating data to TiDB difficult? Will there be long downtime?

      Through COCloud's data migration solutions, we use TiDB ecosystem tools to achieve "Online Data Synchronization." Your old database remains operational during migration; once data is fully synced, only a very brief switch-over window is needed to go live.

      How does COCloud ensure my data security?

      Beyond strong consistency protocols, COCloud provides:
      • Off-site Backup: Assistance in configuring cross-cloud or cross-regional data backups.
      • Security Protection: Integration with cloud firewalls, DDoS protection, and encrypted storage.
      • Access Control: Granular data access permissions and auditing.

      Is TiDB more expensive than MySQL?

      In the long run, TiDB is more cost-effective:
      • Reduced O&M Labor: Automated management saves significant costs on manual DBA maintenance.
      • Precise Scaling: Add or remove nodes as needed to avoid resource waste.
      • Development Efficiency: Eliminates the massive labor costs developers spend on sharding logic.

      Is TiDB suitable for us if our current scale is small?

      Absolutely! With COCloud, you can start with a small-scale cluster. When your business experiences a sudden surge, we can help you scale out in minutes to ensure system stability.
