Beansdb is a distributed key-value storage system designed for large scale online system, aiming for high avaliablility and easy management. It took the ideas from Amazon's Dynamo, then made some simplify to Keep It Simple Stupid (KISS).
The clients write to N Beansdb node, then read from R of them (solving conflict). Data in different nodes is synced through hash tree, in cronjob.
It conforms to memcache protocol (not fully supported, see below), so any memcached client can interactive with it without any modification.
Beansdb is heavy used in http://www.douban.com/, is used to stored images, mp3, text fields and so on, see benchmark below.
Any suggestion or feedback is welcomed.
-
High availability data storage with multi readable and writable repications
-
Soft state and final consistency, synced with hash tree
-
Easy Scaling out without interrupting online service
-
High performance read/write for a key-value based object
-
Configurable availability/consistency by N,W,R
-
Memcache protocol compatibility
- get
- set(with version support)
- append
- incr
- delete
- stats
- flush_all
- get @xxx, list the content of hash tree, such as @0f
- get ?xxx, get the meta data of key.
