Hi user1029384756 - Tobie here, founder of SurrealDB. It's just a team of 2 of us at the moment, with the intention to grow the team very soon!

At the moment (as you have noted) the underlying storage engine is RocksDB (in single mode) or TiKV (in distributed mode), however, although we will always support deployment on top of these solutions, we intend to add our own embedded and distributed key-value stores in due course, which will offer different functionality in the long run!

We're looking to improve our roadmap page really soon to show exactly what we have planned / working on in the near term. In the meantime our features page https://surrealdb.com/features shows details most of the functionality that is already built, or coming in the future.
