KDB-X demonstrated staggering superiority in TSBS time-series database benchmarks, outperforming rivals like QuestDB and ClickHouse by factors ranging from 3.36x to over 1000x despite severe resource constraints. This independent testing highlights architectural efficiencies critical for high-volume analytical workloads.

TidesDB v6.1.0 demonstrates up to 5.25x faster seek operations than RocksDB in benchmark tests, achieved through radical memory-centric design choices. The database trades 3.46x higher memory usage for sub-microsecond latency by keeping metadata permanently resident.

A developer shares the harrowing story of how 89 missing indexes on foreign keys caused catastrophic performance issues in their multi-tenant SaaS application, and the 4-minute fix that saved their launch.

A web developer's Redis clone built in Zig achieves near-native performance—within 5-8% of original Redis throughput—after optimizing parsing bottlenecks and allocator overhead. The project reveals critical lessons about buffered I/O, systems programming tradeoffs, and the value of open-source learning for high-performance databases.

Meet ElysianDB, a new high-performance key-value store written in Go that combines Redis-style simplicity with modern cloud-native deployment. Offering dual TCP/HTTP protocols, persistent storage, and TTL support, it achieves remarkable throughput of 360k+ requests per second while maintaining sub-millisecond latency. This minimalist yet powerful alternative enters the database landscape with Docker-first deployment and a focus on developer efficiency.

Discover how YDB engineered a custom binary JSON format to overcome parsing bottlenecks in distributed SQL databases, enabling O(1) array access and O(logN) object lookups while maintaining compact storage. This technical breakdown reveals why existing solutions like BSON and JSONB fell short for YDB's scalability needs.
