buntdb
An embeddable, in-memory key/value database for Go with custom indexing and geospatial support.
What is buntdb?
BuntDB is a low-level, in-memory key/value store written in pure Go. It persists data to disk, is ACID compliant, and uses locking for multiple readers and a single writer. It is designed for projects that prioritize speed and dependability over large data size, offering features like custom indexing, geospatial support, and JSON field indexing.
Go developers building applications that require a fast, embedded, and reliable database with advanced querying capabilities, such as those needing spatial data handling, custom indexes, or ACID transactions without the overhead of a full SQL database.
Developers choose BuntDB for its combination of in-memory speed with disk persistence, ACID compliance, and unique features like geospatial indexing and JSON field indexing in a simple, embeddable package. Its custom indexing and multi-value index support provide flexibility similar to SQL databases while maintaining the performance of a key/value store.
