Bitcask is an Erlang application that provides an API for storing and retrieving key/value data into a log-structured hash table. The design owes a lot to the principles found in log-structured file systems and draws ...
Bitcask enables you to configure the durability of writes by specifying when to synchronize data to disk, i.e. by choosing a sync strategy. The default setting (none) writes data into operating system buffers that wil...
Bitcask was introduced as the backend for a distributed database named Riak in which each node used to run one instance of Bitcask to hold the data that it was responsible for. In this essay, we take a detailed look i...
Bitcask uses the "rebar" build system, but we have provided a wrapper Makefile so that simply running "make" at the top level should work. Bitcask requires Erlang R14B04 or later.
Discover Bitcask, an embeddable key-value storage engine designed as a log-structured hash table. Learn about its write-optimized architecture and fast performance.
This challenge is to build your own Bitcask storage engine and learn about log-structured hash tables.
At its core, Bitcask describes an append-only storage mechanism for building a key-value database. It consists of one-or-more data files, each of which has an optional index file to allow faster recovery when initiali...
