Native Distributed Databases: Problems, Challenges and Opportunities
Summary: Characterizes native distributed DBs: CAP-driven consistency/latency tradeoffs, replication, network variability, and ops/security complexity; promotes HTAP. Covers advances in consistency protocols, networks, automation/ML; showcases OceanBase (strong TPC‑C/TPC‑H) and research directions.
