A Database for 2022
(Ignoring the fact this may be an April fools joke.)
> We’re going to put everything in a single file on disk again.
For most small scale projects I'm just reading and writing lines to a file on disk. Sure, I could over-engineer some database, or I could get a minimal viable project off of the ground and worry about scaling later. Most projects run into issues long before scalability.
I found myself recently wanting a lightweight key-value store for random structures. For this purpose, I created a toy single-file key-value store [1] in less than 256 lines of C. It's not quite ready for prime time, but it's incredibly easy to use.

Why use a real K/V database over a MapStore?
I was looking at https://github.com/smallnest/kvbench and different K/V databases for golang.
What are some alternatives?
raft - UNMAINTAINED: A Go implementation of the Raft distributed consensus protocol.
go-memdb - Golang in-memory database built on immutable radix trees
bolt
rclone - "rsync for cloud storage" - Google Drive, S3, Dropbox, Backblaze B2, One Drive, Swift, Hubic, Wasabi, Google Cloud Storage, Azure Blob, Azure Files, Yandex Files
litestream - Streaming replication for SQLite.
sshuttle - Transparent proxy server that works as a poor man's VPN. Forwards over ssh. Doesn't require admin. Works with Linux and MacOS. Supports DNS tunneling.
