单集简介 ...

In July of 2020, Joran Dirk Greef stumbled into a fundamental limitation in the general-purpose database design for transaction processing. This sent him on a path that ended with TigerBeetle, a redesigned distributed database for financial transactions that yielded three orders of magnitude faster OLTP performance over the usual (general-purpose) suspects. On this episode, Joran joins Jerod to explain how TigerBeetle got so fast, to defend its resilience and durability claims as a new market entrant, and to stake his claim at the intersection of open source and business. Oh, plus the age old question: Why Zig?

  • Welcome, everyone.

  • I'm Jared, and you are listening to The Change Log,

  • where each and every week we sit down with the hackers, the leaders,

  • and the innovators of the software world to pick their brains, to learn from their failures,

  • to be inspired by their accomplishments, and to have a lot of fun along the way.

  • In July of 2020,

  • Euron Dirk Grief stumbled into a fundamental limitation in the general purpose database design for transaction processing.

  • This sent him on a path that ended with Tiger Beetle,

  • a redesigned distributed database for financial transactions that yielded three orders of magnitude faster OLTP performance over the usual general purpose suspects.

  • On this episode,

  • Euron joins me to explain how Tiger Beetle got so fast to defend its resilience and durability claims as a new market entrant.

  • and to stake his claim at the intersection of open source and business.

  • Plus the age-old question, why Zig?

  • But first, a quick mention of our partners at Fly.io,

  • the public cloud built for developers who ship.

  • You ship, don't you?

  • Then you owe it to yourself to check out Fly.io.

  • Okay, you're on from Tiger Beetle on the changelog.
