Many other companies besides Meta use RocksDB; they're just the largest.

Production adoption at scale is always relevant as a measure of stability, as well as a reflection of whether a solution is applicable to general-purpose workloads.

There's more to the story than just raw performance anyway; for example Meta's migration to MyRocks was motivated by superior compression compared to other alternatives.
