TigerBeetle

“They've made some unique choices that work great for them, but it really doesn't seem like they can be universally applied.”

“Perhaps something like what TigerBeetle does: deterministic simulation testing.”

“They've been putting out high quality detailed information for years.”

“if you look closer at VSR and the state machine interface you’ll see it’s already pluggable”

“TigerBeetle was built for exactly the type of transactional processing this post is about”

“TigerBeetle is also more important than Bun since Zig is a better match for their needs”

“TigerBeetle represents one of Zig biggest strengths: embedded systems.”

“I would rather see something like tigerbeetle become the face of zig, some project that is well written”

“They have consistently attributed things like design and deterministic simulation testing to their success and reliability”

“By all accounts, TigerBeetle has been a tremendous success, congratulations!”

“One of the preeminent Zig software projects, Tigerbeetle[1], has a great website[2”

“We also reached production in 3.5 years, bringing not only a global consensus implementation”

“I like TigerBeetle and I still wish you guys all the success in the world”

“They operate on an entire different level of correctness expectations compared to something like Bun.”

“TigerBeetle is fuzzed within an inch of its life, and is absolutely rock solid”

“TigerBeetle seems to be specialized for financial data and to optimize perf/cost ratio.”

“Easily the most learning I've had in 18 minutes (I watched at 1.2x speed) in my life.”

“The more you zoom, it’s a stronger set of guarantees in terms of safety and performance.”

“This looks like yet another basic key value store.”

“tiger beetle is awesome to keep the account balance. that's it.”

“Figma, TigerBeetle, and much software of the highest class have won the market on the basis of technical excellence”

“a billing database that is efficient enough to keep up with real-time is a game-changer”

“if you manage resources manually, you just can't do that, you are forced to centralize the codepaths”

“Thinking about and specifying these limits up front is better than having operations time out or OOM.”

“I think TigerBeetle have created something remarkable and their approach to programming is how they’ve created it.”

“Having a serious, dedicated, and smart partner, in industry, working hard to operationalize and turn a profit on the language is a massive boon”

“For us, we need to go extra N miles to catch the rest of the bugs as well…”

“TigerBeetle, who seem to be a successful company getting a lot done”

“to understand how financial transaction processing may differ from what they call general purpose databases like PostgreSQL”

“These are all transactions: goods/services and the corresponding money.”

“Whereas TB does vectorized concurrency control: read the 2 accounts, update them 8K times, write the 2 accounts.”

“Was there something wrong with our test of the individual transactions in our Go script that caused the drop in transaction performance we observed?”

“I think the drop in non-batch performance was more a function of the PoC than of TB.”

“We have customers running extremely tight 1 second SLAs, seeing microsecond latencies, even for one at a time workloads.”

“To specialize not for general purpose but only for transaction processing.”

“TigerBeetle's design inverts this, to move "the code to the data" in declarative queries…”

“Tigerbeetle is amazing for moving large numbers of batch transactions at once.”

“it handles so little you will have to roll a lot of custom logic around it to batch realtime transactions quickly”

“For batch transactions, Tigerbeetle delivered truly impressive speeds”

“TigerBeetle has a clear purpose and needed those brilliant optimizations”
