Key :: Value Access Language (KVAL) for BoltDB and Golang

by @beet_keeper

With some forced downtime as the effects of the Kaikōura earthquake are felt here on the North Island, with the shutdown of Archives New Zealand, what better way to spend it than creating a new grammar and parser for key-value databases? I have spent the last few weeks developing a specification for a Key-Value Access Language (KVAL) and implementing a binding for it for Golang’s BoltDB. I hope it will be of interest to folks, but let’s take a look at it in more detail below.

Ah, yes, another "revolutionary" key-value store, this time inspired by the legendary #Bitcask 🚀. Because what the world really needed was a new way to store data on a disk—truly groundbreaking stuff, folks! 🤡 #GitHub is bursting with excitement... or maybe that's just a glitch in their matrix.

This is a simple Key-Value Store server written in Rust and actix that works with HTTP. It supports storing, retrieving, and deleting data, and it saves the information in the "kvstore.db" file. It uses a HashMap to manage in-memory data and handles HTTP requests (GET, PUT, DELETE). It runs on port 8080 and multithreads to handle requests concurrently.

I've just pushed it to GitHub; feel free to contribute:

You can now add our new on-demand key-value stores to your Nine products and services at cockpit.nine.ch. 💾 Key-value stores are so-called NoSQL database types in which data is stored as key-value pairs and optimised for reading and writing this data. 🔁 You can find more information about the product at https://docs.nine.ch/docs/on-demand-databases/on-demand-key-value-store/. 🔗👈 #keyvaluestore #ondemand #database #cockpit #nine

Relationale Datenbanken wie MySQL sind bewährt, aber Key-Value-Stores gewinnen in der Cloud an Bedeutung. Martin Loschwitz beleuchtet ihre Vorteile wie Etcd in Kubernetes, die weniger komplex sind und für bestimmte Anwendungen effizienter arbeiten. Erfahren Sie, wie Consul und RocksDB die Leistung und Skalierbarkeit verbessern, und warum Key-Value-Stores in modernen IT-Setups oft die bessere Wahl sind.

Redis

Redis is a high-performance key-value store originally developed by Salvatore Sanfilippo. It is widely used as a caching layer and message broker, and known for its speed and simplicity. Over the years it has evolved into a full-fledged data structure server, supporting a wide range of data types an(...)
