Features
The features of TiKV
| Feature | Description |
|---|---|
| Low and stable latency | RawKV’s average response time less than 1 ms (P99=10 ms). |
| High scalability | With the Placement Driver and carefully designed Raft groups, TiKV excels in horizontal scalability and can easily scale to 100+ terabytes of data. Scale-out your TiKV cluster to fit the data size growth without any impact on the application. |
| Easy to use | Run a single command to deploy a TiKV cluster with everything you need for production environments. Easily scale out or scale in the cluster with TiUP or TiKV operator. |
| Easy to maintain | TiKV is based on the design of Google Spanner and HBase, but simpler to manage without dependencies on any distributed file system. |
| Consistent distributed transactions | Similar to Google’s Spanner, TiKV (TxnKV mode) supports externally consistent distributed transactions. |
| Adjustable consistency | In RawKV and TxnKV modes, you can customize the balance between consistency and performance. |
