  • LiteDB

    LiteDB - A .NET NoSQL Document Store in a single data file

  • Before checking this out, people might want to take a look through the issues and pull requests of which there are 500+ and 50+ respectively [1]. I was really optimistic about this project and it was headed in a great direction, but it's not in a production ready state, and it seems that the main guy behind it has decided to move onto other things. It's been about a year since there was any significant activity.

    I just mention this because a lot of these little issues might only become more apparent after integrating the db into your project and so it can be a bit annoying. I ended up swapping to Linq2DB [1]. It's something, more or less, similar offering an ORM/LINQ type system as well as the ability to also use direct SQL if desired. But the neat thing is that it also uses a standardized API for the LINQ query language, so you can do things like swap from SQLite to PostgreSQL in one* line of code, so long as you're not using any provider specific extensions.

  • LiteDB-Benchmark

    A LiteDB benchmark with another NoSQL databases

  • One reason:

    SQLite is slower than LiteDB in this benchmark project created by the LiteDB inventor

    https://github.com/mbdavid/LiteDB/issues/291

    Another (lesser) reason is the similarity to MongoDB methods, if that's what you are used to it will feel familiar, but no MongoDB server needed.

  • .NET Runtime

    .NET is a cross-platform runtime for cloud, mobile, desktop, and IoT apps.

  • Spot on, this was the original intent of the linked implementation but the PR eventually did not progress and got rejected[0].

    However, it might not be off the table yet, because scaling per core is dramatically better especially in moderate to write-heavy scenarios which remains the main use case for ConcurrentDictionary. I have been benchmarking it on arm64 lately and it shows different numbers much more favoring non-blocking implementation without any regressions discussed in the PR.

    Linq to database provider.

  • sqlite-fast

    A high performance, low allocation SQLite wrapper targeting .NET Standard 2.0.

  • A few years ago, I needed faster SQLite interop than Microsoft.Data.Sqlite, and ended up writing my own: https://github.com/zmj/sqlite-fast

    The ergonomics could be better, but this enabled query execution to avoid heap allocations and reflection.
