YugabyteDB is a cloud-native database that has been benchmarked to achieve linear scalability with 50 nodes, doubling read and write throughput while maintaining low latencies of around couple of ms. The benchmark was performed on Google Cloud Platform using 50 compute instances with 16 virtual CPUs, 60GB RAM, and 2 x 375 GB direct attached SSDs, and replicated data with a factor of 3. YugabyteDB performs strongly consistent reads and writes by default, with low CPU usage of around 65% for reads and 75% for writes. The database can deliver similar performance outcomes on other public clouds as well as on-premise data centers. It is possible to install and try YugabyteDB out by following simple Quick Start instructions, which are also available in the documentation.
