Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Production grade databases in Rust
Also, not to be too bad about a reputation fallacy, but I found the author to be flippant and disrespectful when good-faith unsoundness was pointed out in his crates: https://github.com/spacejam/rio/issues/30

Linear Types One-Pager
In my previous post on linear types I spent quite a bit of time motivating linear types. For example the ergonomic rio io_uring library could be made sound if it could guarantee destructors are run. Or performing FFI with async C++ could be made more efficient if it could rely directly on destructors rather than having to involve an intermediate runtime for each call.

The Stigma Around Unsafe
It's like cargo should have a way to mark a dependency as unsafe. That way, you could have a safe mmap crate as an unsafe dependency. Or something like rio which is deliberately unsound (but is fine if you abide by its rules through the entirety of the program)

Anyone using io_uring?
for completeness there is also rio, but:

Comparing the Rust uring libraries (tokio-uring, glommio, rio, ringbahn)
rio still has known soundness issues– its Completion futures block the thread when dropped (!!!), and can allow for use-after-free bugs if leaked. See https://github.com/spacejam/rio/issues/30 for details.

Tokio, the async runtime for Rust, hits 1.0
The author of sled[1], an embedded database in Rust which has a number of promising features, has also written parts of rio[2], an underlying pure Rust io_uring library, which is intended to become the core write path for sled. rio has support for files but also has a demo for TCP (on Linux 5.5 and later) and O_DIRECT.
I tested rio recently as I had a Brilliant but Bad Idea™ involving file access and was pleasantly surprised by the API, as I have been with sled's.
I'm excited for the experimentation in the Rust ecosystem and for such low level crates to handle the complex io_uring tasks (relatively) safely!

SableDb – a key/value store that uses RocksDB and Redis API (written in Rust)
a few times, seems interesting. The author's also built a lot of other cool concurrency primitives for Rust as well.

Is Something Bugging You?
- 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.

Production grade databases in Rust
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.

Best local database that works on all platforms including web?
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.

Are there any embedded databases that have multiple-process support?
I'm not sure what you need. Are these of any use? https://github.com/meilisearch/heed https://github.com/spacejam/sled

Are there a demand for management system of embedded storage like RocksDB? I plan to build one in Rust as the language becoming a core of many popular databases but wonder if there’s a demand. Can’t find any similar project even in other languages.
There is also Sled but as I understand it that is being reworked to use the author's new DB core Marble

GreptimeDB: a new open source database designed for large-scale time-series data storage and processing, written in rust
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.

Ask HN: Serverless” key value store with transactions?
https://github.com/spacejam/sled
To add transaction support, you probably need a good understanding of how the memtable works in Log Structured Merge trees:
What are some alternatives?
io_uring-echo-server - io_uring echo server
RocksDB - A library that provides an embeddable, persistent key-value store for fast storage.
smol - A small and fast async runtime for Rust
rust-rocksdb - rust wrapper for rocksdb
KuiBaDB - Another OLAP database
redis-rs - Redis library for rust
cachegrand - cachegrand - a modern data ingestion, processing and serving platform built for today's hardware
sqlx - 🧰 The Rust SQL Toolkit. An async, pure Rust SQL crate featuring compile-time checked queries without a DSL. Supports PostgreSQL, MySQL, and SQLite.
fio - Flexible I/O Tester
mini-redis - Incomplete Redis client and server implementation using Tokio - for learning purposes only
kbio - Another Async IO Framework based on io_uring
heed - A fully typed LMDB wrapper with minimum overhead 🐦
