### Search before asking - [X] I had searched in the [issues](https://github.com/apache/incubator-doris/issues?q=is%3Aissue) and found no similar issues. ### Description TiKV is a low latency, strongly consistent, highly available key-value database which supports ACID transactions. It has been used to store metadata for some infrastructures and services, for example: 1. Metadata of the Object Storage Service in JD Cloud: https://www.cncf.io/blog/2019/11/26/case-study-tikv-in-jd-cloud/ 2. Metadata of the JuiceFS, which is a POSIX file system designed for cloud-native environment: https://juicefs.com/blog/en/posts/juicefs-release-v016/ TiKV is also the storage of TiDB, a distributed HTAP database used by 1500+ users in production. Which gives it the following strengths: 1. Low maintenance overhead for existing TiDB users, the SOPs, KBs of TiDB storage layer can be reused 2. No need to learn how to maintain another system for metadata storage ### Use case By adopting TiKV, it enables us to solve the following problems: 1. Doris stores metadata in local disk, caches it in memory in a specific format. It might be inconvenient to view or modify it 2. As the cluster and data grow, there might be more metadata needed to be stored, the current metadata storage mechanism might be a bottleneck ### Related issues N/A ### Are you willing to submit PR? - [X] Yes I am willing to submit a PR! ### Code of Conduct - [X] I agree to follow this project's [Code of Conduct](https://www.apache.org/foundation/policies/conduct) -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
