Postgres but for agents_

jacques_chester: > db9 is a PostgreSQL-compatible distributed SQL database. Your data is stored in a distributed TiKV cluster, and each database (tenant) gets its own isolated keyspace. [0]I feel like the lede is a bit buried here, bordering on deceptive.That or the architecture doc is wrong. Both plausible I guess, in this day and age.[0] https://db9.ai/docs/sql

hintymad: I think what’s really interesting is that the first version of db9.ai is done by a single person by commanding AI. There must be tons of invaluable lessons learned.

c4pt0r: Hello, the developer of db9 here. You’re right, that section is indeed a bit too brief. We will add more architecture documentation later. What I wanted to convey is that, unlike a standard PostgreSQL, db9 is more like a pg SQL-compatible layer built on top of a large distributed KV store. I also shared a brief introduction in this tweet, which might help clarify things. https://x.com/dxhuang/status/2032016443114733744

c4pt0r: yes, it’s quite a journey
