Why We Built YugabyteDB by Reusing the PostgreSQL Query Layer

Reusing PostgreSQL’s native query layer instead of writing a new Postgresql-compatible query layer ground up has been one of the best design decisions we have made in YugabyteDB. As outlined in the challenges we faced building a distributed SQL database, we have battle scars to prove this insight – we started writing a PostgreSQL-compatible query layer from scratch before realizing that we simply cannot build the world’s best cloud native RDBMS in a timely manner if we persist down this path.

This is known as data sharding and it can be achieved through different strategies, each with its own tradeoffs. In this post, we will examine various data sharding strategies for a distributed SQL database, analyze the tradeoffs, explain the rationale for which of these strategies YugabyteDB supports and what we picked as the default sharding strategy.

Enforcing what type of data can go into a column has the added benefit of helping with storage and in some cases, query performance.

Generically, SQL data types can be broadly divided into following categories.
