Friday Webinar - 💡Design a Storage Engine for Distributed DB From the Beginning

• 👋 Hi, everyone; welcome to join the Friday Webinar! OceanBase is a distributed relational database built from the ground up since 2010 by Ant Group. Different from many other systems, we designed the OceanBase Storage Engine originally instead of using some open-source components such as MySQL, PgSQL, or RocksDB.
• This talk will briefly introduce the OceanBase Storage Engine, including storage structure, compaction, DDL, backup, and recovery details. We will also discuss the reasons and choices why we designed a new storage engine and what benefits and challenges it brings to us.
