Show HN: Skytable's new NoSQL engine BlueQL with injection safety, improved perf
Hey HN!
I've been working on Skytable since 2020 and after several iterations from a simple K/V store, we've walked the path to this release. The goal of Skytable is to deliver a solid foundation for building data intensive applications.
Skytable's primary goal is performance and scale. Even with a query language it can outperform K/V stores which use simple commands (benchmarks will be shared in another post).
Several implementations in Skytable (especially around query evaluation and execution) are fundamentally different from SQL and even NoSQL counterparts and there are some entirely new concepts which might make it a little hard to grasp.
BlueQL is a very important part of Skytable and it employs some interesting concepts to try and reduce the surface for injection attacks and tries to be a modern and secure alternative to SQL.

Skytable’s new NoSQL engine released: BlueQL, injection protection, collections and performance improvements
Here are some quick links: - Source code: https://github.com/skytable/skytable - Rust driver: https://github.com/skytable/client-rust
- Skytable NoSQL Database: Even with BlueQL, Skytable Outperforms Redis and KeyDB

The first version of Redis, written in Tcl
I think this is relevant... These are 3 OSS databases that can be an alternative to Redis:
- KeyDB: https://github.com/snapchat/keydb
- Dragonfly: https://github.com/dragonflydb/dragonfly
- Skytable: https://github.com/skytable/skytable
I have used keyDB before. The raft consensus makes building an HA Redis easy.

Skytable PHP Client
:) in fact, I copied the definition from the project page and Skytable is not finished project yet. You can see here, the real time features in the road map. https://github.com/skytable/skytable/issues/203

Commit 1 to 1000 and beyond: Two years of maintaining an open-source project
Back in June 2020, I started writing what is now known as Skytable, a NoSQL database project. Ever since, I have been maintaining Skytable, mostly in my free time and have recently been spending a lot of time on it. Here's a little story on my two years of experience in maintaining an open-source project: what it's like, the highs and lows and the future.
- So, you call yourself the fastest key/value store? It's 5X, 10x and 25X faster

Jotsy: A self-hosted notes app powered by Skytable, Axum and Tokio
I'm delighted to release Jotsy — a self-hosted, free and open-source (Apache-2.0) note taking app, built with Skytable, Axum and Tokio. The most important goal of Jotsy is to be simple and focus on the most important thing, notemaking.

What are you using Rust for?
Well, we're building the Skytable database with it.

Tunnelmole, an ngrok alternative (open source)
disclosure: I work at Ockam.
The Portals for Mac app is an example of the type of thing you could build using the open source stack of protocols. The README (linked by parent) links out to all of the relevant parts of the protocol documentation to explain how these work together. The NAT Traversal (https://github.com/build-trust/ockam/blob/develop/examples/a...) part of the README is probably the best explanation of why the free relay you get via Ockam Orchestrator is a useful part of this demo.
As for why would anyone trust this: The protocols are designed so you absolutely don't have to trust the relay. Trust is pushed out to the edges that you control and so you're not susceptible to a MITM attack if something like a relay is compromised. The protocol design for all of this is open and documented, and was independently audited by (IMO) some of the best in the business, Trail of Bits: https://docs.ockam.io/reference/protocols.

Tunnel via Cloudflare to Any TCP Service
We’ve been working on something (https://github.com/build-trust/ockam) that enables exactly this, among a whole host of other use cases. If you check out some of the code examples in the docs you’ll see how to setup a tunnel using the CLI.
For other use cases there’s also the programming libraries (only Rust atm, though I was spiking a TypeScript/Node PoC this week) which might provide more flexibility. Personally I’m excited by the idea of being able to move this kind of secure by design connectivity all the way into the application layer though.

Rust and Elixir libraries for end-to-end encrypted secure communication
https://github.com/build-trust/ockam/blob/develop/documentat...
Give it a try. Would love to know if that fits what you're going for.
UDP hole puncturing is in development right now. However there is extensive research that shows it in only successful in making connections in 60 to 80% of real world networks. This is why Signal does relays for example. Relays provide a highly reliable strategy. So we knew we'll want to support both and give devs and option to choose what is right for their application. Or failover from one to the other.
In addition, relays also allow store and forward and integration to other enterprise systems like Kafka. This is how we're able to to move end-to-end encrypted data through Kafka https://github.com/build-trust/ockam/tree/develop/documentat...
Store and forward as a first class feature is in development.
Scatter/Gather is a much harder problem since it involves group key agreement and challenges that come with doing that safely. This is in our long term roadmap, but we've not done any development for this yet.

Official /r/rust "Who's Hiring" thread for job-seekers and job-offerers [Rust 1.58]
Ockam crates implement a collection of messaging and cryptographic protocols that provide end-to-end application layer trust in data. We believe that, in order to have a realistically manageable vulnerability surface, all modern applications need end-to-end guarantees of data integrity and authenticity. The only way to build secure and private applications is to remove unnecessary implicit trust in network boundaries, intermediaries and infrastructure.
