Trend and Challenge

In recent years, with the development of 5G, cloud computing, artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things and other new technologies,  massive data transmission and online transaction processing have become an urgent need to make the development of various industries digitalized and intelligent through networking. The independent and controllable core technology, key components and all kinds of software become an important prerequisite for enterprises, government and public services to ensure network and information security, also bring an unprecedented opportunity for the domestic development of basic database softwares.

The transformation of distributed architecture has become the key to the digital transformation of enterprises. The super-scale data brings impact to the data processing capacity of database, and the database of traditional architecture can no longer meet the needs of industry business development. Compared with the traditional architecture, distributed architecture has higher concurrency and lower latency. Although distributed middleware partially solves this problem, it also brings a lot of problems. Nowadays, relational databases are evolving to cloud-native distributed architectures to meet the challenges of high availability, horizontal scalability, and distributed transactions.
