Hi all, I'm glad to announce to all the BookKeepers the first ALPHA release of HerdDB.
HerdDB is a distributed database which: - is ultra fast for writes - can be replicated among tens of machines, without any shared medium or SAN - can handle thousands of tables - can handle multi-table transactions - can handle multi-table queries - scale horizontally on the number of tables, by simply adding macchines - can optionally run inside the same process of the JVM which runs the main service - can be controlled by using SQL language and the JDBC API - can support indexing of data It is essentially a Key-Value database with an additional SQL layer which lets the users make queries using the well known SQL language. It uses BookKeeper for replication following the common replicated-state machine pattern.
