Our architecture is designed from the ground up to deliver true snapshot isolation—without sacrificing performance or scalability.
🚫 The Problem with Traditional Databases
In most RDBMS systems, read queries are blocked by write operations. This means:- Analytics pipelines stall during ingestion
- Dashboards freeze under concurrent load
- AI workloads suffer from stale or delayed data access
✅ TuringDB’s Zero-Lock Architecture
TuringDB rewrites the rules.- Every read transaction executes on its own immutable snapshot of the graph.
- Writes never block reads, and reads never interfere with writes.
- Snapshot Isolation is enabled by default, with no coordination cost.
- Built-in support for massive parallelism, powering:
- Real-time dashboards
- AI pipelines
- Batch analytics
🔍 How It Works
When a write query modifies the database, it creates a new snapshot behind the scenes. Read queries simply operate on whichever snapshot they start from—no locks, no contention. This ensures:- Consistent reads at a fixed point in time
- Concurrent write throughput without coordination bottlenecks
- Scalable multi-user workloads
📊 Architecture Comparison
In TuringDB, analytics never wait. Read and write paths are completely decoupled.
