Why is KiviDB open source? A database sits at the core of your stack. You shouldn’t have to trust a binary you can’t read. So the whole engine is on GitHub under AGPLv3. Read it, run it, break it, fix it. github.com/kividbio/kividb

KiviDB is now open source. 1.1.0 ships today, and the engine is open source under AGPLv3. A Redis-compatible database in Rust: → 21.2M GETs/sec pipelined, 2.3× Dragonfly → 59.3K vector queries/sec → Every benchmark published Would you mind giving us a ⭐? github.com/kividbio/kividb

Unpopular opinion : most teams don't need a faster database, they need to stop making the same query 40 times per request.

Presenting BYOC: Bring Your Own Cloud for KiviDB. The most common thing we hear from teams evaluating a managed database is “we love not running it, but the data has to stay in our account”

It’s one line of Terraform: cloud_account_id = data.kividb_cloud_account.pr… You get the same Redis-compatible, multi-core KiviDB, managed by us and running in your account.

The full write-up covers how access is scoped and what stays under your control : kividb.io/blog/bring-your-ow… If your team has been blocked from using a managed in-memory database because of data residency or compliance, I’d like to hear what the blocker was. #KiviDB #BYOC #redis

Fast. Cheap. Robust. Pick three. ⚡ 25.9M pipelined reads/sec at 0.32 ms p99 💰 18–77% lower cost in our managed-database comparison 🛡️ Cross-AZ replicas and automatic failover The trade-off triangle is a habit....not a law. kividb.io/blog/fast-cheap-ro…

Fast, cheap, robust: you don't have to pick two

The old rule says a database can be fast, cheap or robust: pick two. Here is how KiviDB Cloud delivers all three, with the benchmarks and the price-per-GB comparison behind it.

Most "we need a faster database" tickets turn out to be "we're making 40 queries to render one page." Fix the access pattern first, then shop for hardware or a new engine.

Database performance gets the attention. Infrastructure cost gets the invoice. At 100 GB with high availability: KiviDB Cloud: $15.70/GB AWS ElastiCache: $20.38/GB Dragonfly Cloud: $22.00/GB Google Memorystore: $22.46/GB Faster, and less per GB. kividb.io

Pipelined reads change the picture. Same AWS setup: KiviDB: ~17.1M ops/sec Dragonfly: ~8.0M ops/sec That’s more than 2× the throughput from a Redis-compatible engine built in Rust. Methodology: kividb.io/docs/benchmark What would your stack do with it?
