  Description     : Kyoto Cabinet is an efficient database library like
GDBM and NDBM.

Kyoto Cabinet is a library of routines for managing a database. The
database
is a simple data file containing records, each is a pair of a key and a
value. Every key and value is serial bytes with variable length. Both
binary
data and character string can be used as a key and a value. Each key
must be
unique within a database. There is neither concept of data tables nor
data
types. Records are organized in hash table or B+ tree.

Kyoto Cabinet runs very fast. For example, elapsed time to store one
million
records is 0.9 seconds for hash database, and 1.1 seconds for B+ tree
database. Moreover, the size of database is very small. For example,
overhead for a record is 16 bytes for hash database, and 4 bytes for B+
tree
database. Furthermore, scalability of Kyoto Cabinet is great. The
database
size can be up to 8EB (9.22e18 bytes).

Python bindings to the C++ library.
