Welcome to LocalDB
.NET oriented database with ACID properties
LocalDB will be super fast NoSQL (document based) database with ACID properties running as part as .NET application.
Best for:
- .NET applications (Web apps, services or console/windows apps)
- One instance applications
Features:
- Simple integration and usage
- Lambda Expressions support
- Unbelievable speed (multiple times faster than common databases which comunicate by network layer (e.g. TCP))
- Delivered as Nuget package
Motivation:
Many smaller projects (web apps or services) running as one instance and need to store some kind of data in persistent storage. For this purpose we are using services like:
- document databases: MongoDB, RavenDB, CosmosDB ...
- key value par databases: DynamoDB, LevelDB ...
- relation databases: MsSQL, PostgreSQL, MySQL ... but many times it is like a big hammer to small nail.
What about to have really simple and super fast solution which will be used comfortable as e.g. Entity Framework and runs as part as .NET application.
