Case Study: Micoworks simplifies database operations and speeds analytics with PingCAP’s TiDB Dedicated

Micoworks cuts query latency from 1 minute to 1 second with PingCAP

Micoworks, the Japanese company behind the MicoCloud SNS communication platform, faced challenges with its complex multi-database infrastructure. Their use of Amazon DynamoDB, Aurora MySQL, and Amazon Redshift led to data transfer complexity, high operational overhead, and performance bottlenecks for analytics. To support its rapid growth, Micoworks needed a unified solution and partnered with vendor PingCAP to implement TiDB Dedicated.

The solution from PingCAP was TiDB Dedicated, a fully-managed DBaaS that consolidated their previous databases. This provided MySQL compatibility, horizontal scalability, and strong consistency. The results included significantly reduced operational complexity, improved analytics performance with query latency dropping from one minute to one second, and reduced monthly database costs.
