OceanBase has unveiled EvolvingX, a new database solution designed for next-generation digital platforms, at the TOKEN2049 Singapore 2026 event. The solution is built to support the evolving needs of businesses, particularly those in the digital asset space, offering always-on performance, seamless scalability, and cost efficiency.
EvolvingX is engineered to handle high-throughput transactions and complex queries within a single architecture. It can sustain 150,000 high-frequency writes per second under a 3-node configuration, with 99% of writes completing within 1 millisecond and 99% of queries finishing within 20 milliseconds. The system also supports linear scaling of read/write throughput by adding nodes, with the largest production deployment handling tens of millions of read/write operations per second.
The solution addresses common challenges in digital asset platforms, such as downtime, data inconsistencies, and high infrastructure costs. It eliminates the “single-point hotspot” issue seen in traditional sharded architectures, ensuring balanced performance across the cluster. EvolvingX also offers strong MySQL compatibility, multi-region resilience, and data security features, making it suitable for fast-evolving platforms.
OceanBase has previously supported companies like HashKey and ChainBase, and with EvolvingX, the company aims to expand its support for the broader ecosystem of next-generation digital platforms. The solution is designed to grow with teams as they move from early-stage development to global operations, offering a unified data engine for transactional, analytical, and AI workloads.
