TDSQL-C for MySQL vs. TencentDB for MySQL

TencentDB for MySQL (Weaknesses)
TDSQL-C for MySQL (Strengths)
The upper limit of data storage is limited by a single physical machine.
Upgrading specifications and adding read-only instances takes a relatively long time‌.
Strong data consistency requires expensive methods.
Binlog-based data sync can't completely solve the source-replica delay.‌
Full logs (redo log, binlog) and data page updates cause write performance bottlenecks‌.
Data rollback and recovery takes too long.
Compute nodes are stateless, and read-only nodes can be upgraded, switched, and added within seconds.
Only redo logs are written to implement lightweight writing, delivering a higher write performance (increased by 140%).
The source and replica instances are synced based on redo logs. The source instance pushes redo logs, and the replica instances only replay data in the memory without storing it in disks. The replica instance latency is reduced to milliseconds.
Strong data consistency is implemented at the block level based on three copies.
Distributed storage is supported with up to 400 TB capacity for each instance.
Disk capacity expansion is imperceptible to and has no impact on the business.
Gigabytes of data can be backed up/rolled back per second to solve the core problems of slow backup and rollback.
Serverless capabilities are available.
