A 12 year old product that still has poor documentation? Plus you say TPS = TCO. That’s a good one!
Elaborate?
The limiting factor isn't how many operations the platform can handle, it's how many operations/transactions you can generate before the server will even break a sweat.
I'm just a lowly engineer, and while I'll say some stuff on a throwaway account, this is really the marketing department's purview.... Casual googling confirms it's public information that Schwab runs ... nearly everything on it, and it's a much smaller number of servers than you'd think.

MongoDB used to be AGPL and I believe most people didn’t interpret the license as everything calling the database must be AGPL, and then everything calling the thing calling the database too, that recursively until the entire world must be licensed under AGPL.
Cockroach is meant to be sql compatible, whilst Aerospike is nosql.
Is that why you commented under a different username, because you are affectively spreading misinformation?
Especially when it’s so conspiratorial in nature and spreading information that is completely unverifiable.
I never said it did.

No, asshole. Because it's a small world, and it's not exactly the smartest thing to do to.... never mind. Obviously you're gonna assume ill intent regardless of what I say.
> "whilst Aerospike is nosql"
You obviously have no idea what you're talking about, and have never used it. If you had, you wouldn't think of it as "nosql".
It's... more like a real time data processing platform, I honestly don't know of an existing category or comparable software.
At first glance it looks like a kvs database with a lot of bells and whistles. After you learn more, though, you realize it's not "just" a database -- you write your application with the Aerospike client library, using expressions, data modeling, CDTs, &c. Not using it as a black box for storing data.
Check out Aerospike. It's the most robust and truly "zero effort scale" real time data platform I've ever seen. Properly configured and used, it whups everything in terms of TPS and performance/machine aka TCO. By a huge, huge, factor.
Downside is ... everything else. :/ Less polished developer experience, docs, &c. There are so many huge customers, but very few who are talking about it. Requires more of a time investment -- because you're learning a new platform, not using a drop in replacement for what you already know. But the reward is performance beyond anything else.
(the VLDB 2016 paper is a good high level overview of the architecture)
If you do check it out, be sure to use version 6.1 or later, in particular see what can be done combining secondary indexes with container data types.... A, uh, birdie told me that. :P
edit: Same birdie told me Aerospike has customers who replaced CockroachDB, when they found out it has trouble scaling past a point.
I really hope they can get their act together in terms of communication and marketing -- it's sadly "the most advanced solution you've never heard of".
