About TiDB Serverless

TiDB is a modern, cloud-native distributed SQL database designed for applications requiring elasticity, resilience, and real-time insights. It unifies transactional (OLTP) and real-time analytical (OLAP) workloads within a single, MySQL-compatible platform, eliminating the need for complex data pipelines and siloed architectures. Built on the new TiDB X architecture, it features decoupled compute and cloud-native object storage, enabling independent scaling and high durability. TiDB is ideal for developers and enterprises building real-time applications, analytics platforms, and multi-tenant SaaS solutions that demand always-on performance and elastic scale. It simplifies the data stack by providing a single database engine that supports transactional, analytical, operational, and AI workloads, all with strong ACID consistency and enterprise-grade security. Its built-in autoscaling, based on real-time workload demands, removes the need for manual tuning and overprovisioning, making operations agile and efficient. The product offers flexible deployment options, including a fully managed cloud DBaaS (TiDB Cloud) with Starter, Essential, and Dedicated editions, as well as a self-managed option for on-premise or custom cloud deployments. The Starter tier of TiDB Cloud is available for free, making it accessible for trying out the platform's capabilities.
