KiviDB frames the design as a response to the multi-core scaling limits and licensing fractures of those caches, including Redis. The architecture matters for teams running high-throughput in-memory data stores alongside vector search workloads.", "body_md": "Tackling the multi-core scaling limits and licensing fractures of classical in-memory caches, KiviDB clocks 21.2 million pipelined operations per second.
