YugabyteDB is a PostgreSQL fork that has been enhanced to scale horizontally using a Spanner-like storage and transaction architecture. We will highlight the strengths of YugabyteDB - high availability and elasticity. Additionally, we will compare and contrast YugabyteDB with PostgreSQL, and investigate where the distributed storage fits into the code. Our emphasis will be on analyzing the architectural aspects and underlying mechanisms used for storage, data replication, and ACID transactions to determine the use cases where it can be a viable alternative or not.
