TiKV, TiDB and PingCAP, with Ed Huang

Edward (Ed) Huang developed a keen interest in engineering at the age of 12. After college, he worked for Netease and Wandou Labs, two large Internet companies in China, as an infrastructure engineer. After working for Wandou Labs for about 3 years and witnessing first-hand the difficulty in scaling the database manually as data grew, Ed saw the huge pain point in big data storage. With the vision that there should be a new kind of database to tackle this problem, Ed co-founded PingCAP in 2015 as the CTO. Besides his day job, Ed is a passionate open-source advocate and tech blogger.Link to write-up here: https://www.theharbingerchina.com/blog/revolutionizing-infrastructure-software-a-conversation-with-ed-huang
