In my last post, I talked about how we made TiDB work, made it right, and, finally, made it fast. But we didn’t stop there. To build an ideal database, we need to make TiDB affordable for all and adopted by all.

To tap into TiDB’s full potential, users must deploy it on SSDs. Some complained that SSD costs were high. At first, we were confused because SSDs were not so expensive, and storage devices only made up a small fraction of the total cost.
