This is a work-in-progress package and not yet functional. (Popping a squat in the namespace real quick.)
The goal of this project is to create a replicated storage package using CRDTs and sqlite3 via the crdts and sqloquent packages, respectively. Using CRDTs, any number of updates can be made to a local replica without the need for any consensus or commitment mechanism -- so long as all updates (state deltas) are eventually applied by all replicas, all replicas will converge to the same state. Additionally, authorization will use tapescript, and serialization will probably use packify in early dev stages.
Ever want to have a replicated database with sub millisecond reads and writes that did not cost a fortune in dedicated database hosting costs? This should allow for applications to be built using an entirely new database model that requires only a few bootstrap nodes to connect application servers for blazingly bonkers fasterest databaseness.
The following are what will comprise the base system:
- Base models: LWWRegister/LWWMap + sqloquent
- Replicated key-value/document store
- Synchronization worker
- Auth system for sync protocol messages
The following are ideas I am contemplating once the base system is done:
- Sharded key-value/document store using Highest Random Weight/Rendezvous Hashing
- Record-level ACL
