Ask HN: Why are there no open source NVMe-native key value stores in 2023?

This page summarizes the projects mentioned and recommended in the original post on news.ycombinator.com

Our great sponsors
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • KVRocks

    RocksDB compatible key value store and MyRocks compatible storage engine designed for KV SSD (by OpenMPDK)

  • ScaleStore

    This is the source code for our (Tobias Ziegler, Carsten Binnig and Viktor Leis) published paper at SIGMOD’22: ScaleStore: A Fast and Cost-Efficient Storage Engine using DRAM, NVMe, and RDMA.

  • I don't remember exactly why I have any of them saved, but these are some experimental data stores that seems to be fitting what you're looking for somewhat:

    - https://github.com/DataManagementLab/ScaleStore - "A Fast and Cost-Efficient Storage Engine using DRAM, NVMe, and RDMA"

    - https://github.com/unum-cloud/udisk - "The fastest ACID-transactional persisted Key-Value store designed for NVMe block-devices with GPU-acceleration and SPDK to bypass the Linux kernel."

    - https://github.com/capsuleman/ssd-nvme-database - "Columnar database on SSD NVMe"

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • udisk

    The fastest ACID-transactional persisted Key-Value store designed as modified LSM-Tree for NVMe block-devices with GPU-acceleration and SPDK to bypass the Linux kernel

  • solid_cache

    A database-backed ActiveSupport::Cache::Store

  • Is that discussion/implementation of nvme available somewhere in public?

    https://github.com/rails/solid_cache didn't include anything about NVME that I could find.

  • kvrocks

    Apache Kvrocks is a distributed key value NoSQL database that uses RocksDB as storage engine and is compatible with Redis protocol.

  • There’s Kvrocks. It uses the Redis protocol and it’s built on RocksDB https://github.com/apache/kvrocks

  • xNVMe

    Portable and high-performance libraries and tools for NVMe devices as well as support for traditional/legacy storage devices/interfaces.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • KVSSD

    KV SSD host software including APIs and drivers

  • yottaStore

    A datastore aiming at linear scalability up to the yottabyte range. Inspired by dynamo and cassandra.

  • uNVMe

    KV and LBA SSD userspace NVMe driver

  • https://github.com/OpenMPDK/uNVMe/blob/master/doc/uNVMe2.0_S...

    I can't find detailed spec sheets detailing which NVMe command sets are supported even for their enterprise drives.

  • Aerospike

    Aerospike Database Server – flash-optimized, in-memory, nosql database
