RocksDB
RocksDB is a high-performance database system designed for fast storage of large amounts of data on disk. It organizes and saves data efficiently, allowing quick retrieval and updates, much like a highly optimized digital filing cabinet. Commonly used in applications requiring speed and reliability, such as financial services and search engines, RocksDB leverages techniques like data compression and multi-threading to handle intense workloads. It’s built to work well with storage media like solid-state drives (SSDs), making it suitable for real-time data processing and scalable systems.
