sled VS Audioserve

a few times, seems interesting. The author's also built a lot of other cool concurrency primitives for Rust as well.

- Dropbox [3] uses a similar approach but they talk about it a bit more abstractly.

Sans-IO is more documented in Python [4], but str0m [5] and quinn-proto [6] are the best examples in Rust I’m aware of. Note that sans-IO is orthogonal to deterministic test frameworks, but it composes well with them.

With the disclaimer that my opinions are mine and mine alone, and don’t reflect the company I work at —— I do work at a rust shop that has utilized these techniques on some projects.

TigerBeetle is an amazing example and I’ve looked at it before! They are really the best example of this approach outside of FoundationDB I think.

Sled uses bw-tree actually https://github.com/spacejam/sled/wiki/sled-architectural-outlook

There is a valid argument to be made for threads over async in a large percentage of use cases where async is considered the default. If this is what you are referring to however, I don't think they ever referred to async as completely useless: https://github.com/spacejam/sled/issues/1123.

Have you looked into other pure-Rust databases as well, such as sled or GlueSQL which has an SQL interface on top of sled? I wonder how those would compare to Persy.

I'm not sure what you need. Are these of any use? https://github.com/meilisearch/heed https://github.com/spacejam/sled

There is also Sled but as I understand it that is being reworked to use the author's new DB core Marble

There are some databases like sled/FlashDB designed to be embedded to other applications even bare metal microcontrollers. But I do doubt the potential bussiness value of a pure embedded database.

To add transaction support, you probably need a good understanding of how the memtable works in Log Structured Merge trees:

So basically, I need something like mStream or Audioserve that you point at a folder and you can play the mp3s in it. Nothing fancy, I don't need tags, etc. something strictly folder-based. It also needs the ability to link directly to the file. Mousikofidi does this, but I need something for Windows (I know, I know...) Essentially Apache but prettier.

Perhaps take a look at Audioserve.

Maybe AudioServ? It's a lightweight, directory based, server but I don't remember what the search is like. https://github.com/izderadicka/audioserve

Absolutely, no point arguing over personal preference. If you prefer a folder structure, perhaps look into Audioserve.

I also considered audioserve + app [1], but I did not have the time to try it out.
