NuDB
A fast, append-only key/value store optimized for random read performance on SSD drives, written in C++11.
What is NuDB?
NuDB is a fast, append-only key/value database specifically optimized for random read performance on SSD drives. It is designed for content-addressable storage, where keys are often cryptographic hashes of the data, and provides constant-time reads regardless of database size. The library is header-only and built with C++11 and Boost, making it easy to integrate into existing projects.
C++ developers building high-performance storage systems, particularly those needing efficient, scalable key/value storage for SSDs in applications like blockchain nodes, content-addressable archives, or logging systems.
Developers choose NuDB for its SSD-optimized design, constant read performance, and low memory overhead. Unlike general-purpose databases, it excels in append-only scenarios, offering reliability and speed without the complexity of update/delete operations.
