PingCAP honored as Gold Stevie(R) Award winner in 2026 American Business Awards(R). 2026-04-23 SUNNYVALE, Calif., April 23, 2026 - PingCAP, the company behind the distributed SQL database TiDB, was named the winner of a Gold Stevie(R) Award for its TiDB X product in the American Business Awards'(R) Big Data & Reporting Analytics Solution category. PingCAP is the creator of TiDB, the AI-native distributed SQL database built for agentic workloads that grow unpredictably. TiDB combines ACID guarantees with native support for transactions, analytics, and vector search in a single engine, giving teams one platform to power AI agents, modern applications, and real-time intelligence without data silos, noisy neighbors, or infrastructure ceilings. Innovators like Manus, Atlassian, Dify, Pinterest, Plaid, and Bolt rely on TiDB to scale their most demanding workloads. Last year, PingCAP launched TiDB X to redefine how modern businesses manage, analyze, and activate data at scale. It makes object storage the backbone of the TiDB platform, enabling it to scale automatically based on workload patterns, business cycles, and data characteristics. Alongside the release, PingCAP introduced a suite of generative and agentic AI innovations designed to power the next wave of intelligent applications and agents. Key capabilities of TiDB X include: * Context-aware adaptability: Scales based on signals like QPS, latency, query mix, and data type, without manual intervention. * Smarter retrieval and reasoning: A unified query engine combines vector, knowledge graph, JSON, and SQL data into a single analytical layer, enabling richer multi-hop reasoning, long-term memory, and versioned, branchable storage. * Fluid workload support: Transitions seamlessly across OLTP, operational analytics, vector search, time-series, and AI workloads in one platform. * AI Developer Toolkit: Includes the TiDB AI SDK, TiDB Reasoning Engine, and TiDB MCP Server, with native integrations for OpenAI, Hugging Face, Cohere, Gemini, Jina, and NVIDIA, making TiDB one of the most open and flexible distributed SQL platforms for AI builders. * Predictable economics: Usage-based pricing with enforceable Request Unit (RU/s) controls. Customers are seeing measurable results with TiDB X. Manus powers sub-second branching for thousands of concurrent AI agents on TiDB. Dify reduced infrastructure costs by 80 percent and cut operational overhead by 90 percent after consolidating onto TiDB. "Enterprises can no longer afford databases that force a tradeoff between performance, scale, and operational simplicity, especially as agentic AI reshapes application workloads," said Max Liu, CEO of PingCAP. "TiDB X was built for this moment. It adapts to the way modern applications and AI agents actually behave, and gives teams one platform to run transactions, analytics, and AI without stitching systems together. We're honored to receive this recognition from the Stevie Awards." The American Business Awards are the U.S.A.'s premier business awards program. All organizations operating in the U.S.A. are eligible to submit nominations - public and private, for-profit and non-profit, large and small.

PingCAP was nominated in the Big Data & Reporting Analytics Solution category for TiDB X, the latest version of its distributed SQL database for hyperscale and AI-native workloads. "Organizations across the United States continue to set a high standard for innovation and performance," said Stevie Awards President Maggie Miller.
