Distributed SQL databases are becoming popular with organizations interested in moving data infrastructure to the cloud or cloud native environments, motivated by reducing TCO or moving away from horizontal scaling limitations of monolithic RDBMS. YugabyteDB is an open source, high-performance distributed SQL database built on a scalable and fault-tolerant design inspired by Google Spanner, offering deep integration with GraphQL projects and advanced RDBMS features like stored procedures, triggers, and UDFs. YugabyteDB provides equivalents to Oracle's IDENTITY and PostgreSQL's SERIAL columns, handling Oracle's NUMBER and PostgreSQL's DECIMAL and NUMERIC data types, and converting Oracle's TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE datatype to UTC, all while maintaining permissive licenses under Apache 2.0 for itself and similar licenses for PostgreSQL. New documentation, blogs, tutorials, and videos have been published to support the release of YugabyteDB 2.2, covering topics such as transactional distributed backups, online index builds, deferred constraints, colocated tables, and benchmarking using TPC-C. Upcoming events include webinars and a conference on cloud native databases.
