It sounds awesome. I'm an a analytics guy using a lot of SQL - not a coder. Though I understand the OP writeup and the purported performance advantages. Can someone explain:

a) what Tigerbeetle data looks like in practice? Assuming it doesn't look like a regular table

b) how you use it, if you can't write sql queries?

c) separately, curious what double-entry would look like for stocks, tickets etc. E.g. I'm a venue and I have 1000 tickets in inventory & deferred revenue.. each time I sell a ticket I turn that inventory to cash and the deferred into a performance liability? Or no entries at all until a ticket is sold? Something else?



As one example, Rene Schallner made a pretty cool ticketing demo called TigerFans: https://tigerfans.io
