GaussDB:The Database of Databases
GaussDB is described by Huawei as a "AI-Native" database management system. They're referring to the DBMS' capacity to self-tune, diagnose flaws automatically, and self-heal using Artificial Intelligence (AI)
It is a massively parallel processing (MPP) architecture-based AI-Native distributed database for enterprises. GaussDB can handle petabytes of data and supports both row and column-oriented storage.Huawei Consumer Cloud Uses GaussDB to Implement Smart Operations
GaussDB is cross-platform and runs on a variety of architectures, including Arm and x86 processors, as well as GPUs and NPUs (non-programmable units) (neural processing units, which are hardware accelerators designed to boost artificial intelligence applications).

GaussDB is available:
as a stand-alone software package
a private cloud component
a managed service on Huawei's public cloud
Features:


Large Scalability and Capacity
Online scale-out to terabytes or even petabytes of data per instance is supported by GaussDB (for openGauss). There's no requirement for sharding, which makes application development easier.
High Availability of Financial Grade
To provide service continuity in the event that one of the data centers fails, a single DB instance can be distributed across AZs within the same region.
A high level of concurrency
Under high transaction concurrency, response latency for important business operations is less than 3 seconds. From nearly 20 minutes to seconds, the time it takes to provide results for reporting and complicated query queries has been decreased.
Data Warehouse Service:
Data Warehouse Service is the name of GaussDB's public cloud version (DWS). Users can work with DWS data using Huawei's graphical and non-graphical client applications. You can use either ODBC or JDBC to access DWS data from other applications.
By employing middleware known as an ODBC driver to translate the application's requests into something that the database understands, ODBC provides a uniform, cross-DBMS interface and insulates applications from the database. Huawei provides an ODBC driver for DWS that is compatible with Windows and Linux.

Conclusion:
Gauss Db the Database of databases is the most powerful system. It is A Distributed, Financial-Grade Database, with a 54% increase in performance, Instances of its DB may be spread across AZs and regions. Strong consistency is used to ensure that no data is lost.GaussDB (for openGauss) is backed by Huawei's database experience, which spans over ten years. Huawei controls the intellectual property for GaussDB(for openGausscore )'s code and is capable of diagnosing and optimizing all product modules at the source code level thus making it highly secure
