From Cloud Native to Serverless: Reflections and Takeaways

➤➤➤ Seven years in — from cloud-native to HTAP to Serverless. What have PingCAP, its users, partners, and the industry and community that have grown alongside it learned along the way? Early Yunqi Capital portfolio company PingCAP will host PingCAP DevCon 2022 online from December 1–3, inviting you to witness the cutting edge of the industry. Yunqi Capital partner Chen Yu will join a roundtable in the keynote track on December 1.

PingCAP DevCon is an annual flagship data technology conference hosted by PingCAP. Now in its fifth year, it has become a bellwether for tracking forward-looking technology trends and industry applications in the database sector. This year's conference, themed "Go Discover, Go Challenge," brings together industry thought leaders, experts, and senior technologists to explore frontier data technology trends and directions including cloud-native, HTAP, Serverless, and DB microservices, share best practices, and explore diversified solutions for cloud-based and overseas business across industries. The event also features hands-on training camps, debates, and showcases of outstanding TiDB Hackathon projects — not to be missed.

How has PingCAP stayed at the forefront of database technology development? What impact has open source had on academia, and how has it driven technological progress? How will TiDB HTAP evolve amid today's trends in database cloud-native, Serverless, and DB microservices? What are the most important technology and application trends in the database space, or in the broader infrastructure domain?

In the roundtable, senior technologists from across industries will share the stage for an annual review, discussing their takes on technology trends from North America to China, and exploring how technology intersects with industry scenarios to shape industrial trends and application models.

For years, Yunqi Capital has remained focused on "technology innovation, industry enablement." Open source and infrastructure software have been among its sustained areas of focus. Yunqi made early-stage lead investments in PingCAP, Zilliz, Jina AI, Rising Wave, and other industry-leading companies, and has been invited to share perspectives on commercialization at multiple world-class industry summits including the Amazon Web Services Summit, China Open Source Conference, VMware Edge & Cloud Intelligence Open Source Summit, and Huawei Partner & Developer Conference.

As a specialized investor in China's open source industry, Yunqi has received repeated industry recognition including the "Sci-Tech Innovation China" Open Source Innovation award, and its investors were the only ones in the industry named as domestic open source pioneers.

Over the past year, Yunqi has actively promoted open source development. In early 2022, Yunqi partnered with Kaiyuanshe, China's most influential open source community, to officially release the 2021 China Open Source Annual Report, presenting a multi-dimensional picture of domestic open source development.

Additionally, Yunqi joined the OpenCloudOS operating system open source community as a founding member, committed to working with community partners to build a fully neutral, comprehensively open, secure, stable, and high-performance operating system and ecosystem, jointly advancing open source ecosystem development.
