Note that this is not a database server, like Redis or Memcached. This is a database library, more along the lines of sqlite. In particular: "There is no client-server support builtin to the library. An application that needs such support will have to wrap their own server around the library" and only one process can access a database a time.
LevelDB should not be compared with the storage model of TC, because leveldb could be looked on a bigtable that run on single node, which is a model that is optimzied for updating instead of reading. The application situation for leveldb is different with that of TC
Hi Thank you for this explanation. My first thought was how is it different than Redis and then when I read no client-server support, I thought, this is worse than Redis. But then your comparison with sqlite makes it a little bit better. I can see a few use cases for it now. Thanks!
