Azure SQL Database vs. Oracle Autonomous Database vs. SkySQL vs. TigerData Comparison Chart

Oracle Autonomous Database is a fully automated cloud database that uses machine learning to automate database tuning, security, backups, updates, and other routine management tasks traditionally performed by DBAs. It supports a wide range of data types and models, including SQL, JSON documents, graph, geospatial, text, and vectors, enabling developers to build applications for any workload without integrating multiple specialty databases. Built-in AI and machine learning capabilities allow for natural language queries, automated data insights, and the development of AI-powered applications. It offers self-service tools for data loading, transformation, analysis, and governance, reducing the need for IT intervention. It provides flexible deployment options, including serverless and dedicated infrastructure on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), as well as on-premises with Exadata Cloud@Customer.

TigerData is a high-performance, cloud-native PostgreSQL platform built for real-time analytics, time-series processing, vector workloads and intelligent agent-driven applications. It retains full SQL compatibility while delivering exceptional speed and scale: the platform powers millions of databases, supports streaming data across devices and applications, and enables organizations to consolidate transactional and analytical workloads in a single engine. TigerData enhances PostgreSQL with extensions and execution optimizations that provide low-latency queries, high-concurrency insert rates, hybrid operational/analytical use cases and vector embedding support for AI-driven workloads. Developers gain simplicity and reliability by staying within PostgreSQL’s ecosystem, familiar tools, connectors and syntax, while unlocking performance on par with purpose-built time-series or vector engines.
