> Introduced in 2013, HBase was Pinterest’s first NoSQL datastore. Along with the rising popularity of NoSQL, HBase quickly became one of the most widely used storage backends at Pinterest.
Followed by,
> For the past few years, we have seen a seemingly steady decline in HBase usage and community activity in the industry, as many peer companies were looking for better alternatives to replace HBase in their production environments. This in turn has led to a shrinking talent pool, higher barrier to entry, and lower incentive for new engineers to become a subject matter expert of HBase.
Lets see how TiDB holds on in the same timeframe, although being boring SQL might keep it around.
