Product Benefits

TaurusDB is an enterprise-grade cloud database with decoupled compute and storage.

Performance

TaurusDB can deliver seven times the performance of open-source MySQL for certain service loads and achieve millions of queries per second (QPS).

Scalability

  • Horizontal scaling: You can add up to 15 read replicas within minutes as required.
  • Vertical scaling: You can change the vCPUs and memory of instances to process uncertain workload growth.
  • Storage scaling: The storage automatically grows as the amount of data in your database increases. An instance supports up to 128 TB of storage.

Reliability

TaurusDB supports cross-AZ and remote disaster recovery for financial-grade reliability.

There are three data copies to ensure data security.

Compatibility

TaurusDB is fully compatible with MySQL, so there is no need to reconstruct applications.

Middleware-free architecture

When the service performance is normal, Distributed Database Middleware (DDM) is not required.
