The distributed HTTP Server to manage keys/values pairs in a flash. The only limit to its scalability is the number of nodes that compose the cluster ring. |
| The Orient Key/Value Server was born to satisfy the increasing request of a super-fast engine that knows only the concepts of
Buckets, Keys and Values. In facts you could not need a full featured DBMS if you can simplify your application to store and retrieve all your data by a unique key. Data can be any document such as a JSON or XML document or any format you want to treat. Orient stores key/value entries in
buckets.
Buckets are collections of entries and the
buckets are mapped themselves with a key.
You can use HTTP method to tell to Orient the operation you want to execute: GET to retrieve values, POST to insert them, PUT to update and DELETE to remove. Orient handles billions of entries in a single node even on obsolete HW since it uses the RAM only for the most accessed entries. |

OrientDB Key/Value Server scales out very well in a cluster with thousands of running machines: OrientDB will divide the load among all the nodes. Cluster, by default, works in auto-discovery mode: when a node starts it attaches itself to the cluster if any. When a node goes down the cluster auto rebalances itself. Entries are constantly distributed for the entire ring of servers when the cluster configuration changes. |
- Extremely light: 1,4Mb for the distributed Partition Server.
- Run on any platform: All the engine is 100% pure Java and can run on Linux, MS Windows and any system that supports the Java 6+ technology.
- Super fast: a single server on common hardware* stores up to 1.700 entries per second, 146,880,000 per day.
- High availability: The Partition Server can run in high availability mode using a cluster of multiple nodes partitioned. Your information will never be unavailable!
- Standard access: The Server speaks using the HTTP protocol so it can be used from any Programming Language and from any Internet Browser
