Elixir + Zig + TigerBeetle = ⚡

Find out why at TigerBeetle 1000x World Tour in Milan this December 6th.
Excited to see many of you on tour in less than 2 weeks.

The talks, from TigerBeetle engineers and friends, will range from multiversion binaries and toolchain decisions to consensus and 1000x performance.

13 cities, 1-6 December—we can't wait!

"If you can't count correctly with contention at high speed, it's not OLTP. And if you're not doing serializable, if you're cutting corners on isolation, it's not ACID."

BRB, going to implement cluster time. 😎 #tigerbeetle brilliance is like on every post they do. I learn so much just from reading their posts. Let alone going over there code. This is what resilient db looks like.

"Remarkably, if the system of record provides strict serializability, like TigerBeetle, and if ordering is correctly applied, then the system as a whole preserves strict serializability, leading to a delightful developer experience."
