god

god is a scalable, performant, persistent, in-memory data structure system. It allows massively distributed applications to update and fetch common data in a structured and sorted format.

Its main inspirations are Redis and Chord/DHash. Like Redis it focuses on performance, ease of use, and a small, simple yet powerful feature set, while from the Chord/DHash projects it inherits scalability, redundancy, and transparent failover behaviour.

Try it out

Install Go, git, Mercurial and gcc, go get github.com/zond/god/god_server, run god_server, browse to http://localhost:9192/.

Embed it in your Go application

import "github.com/zond/god/dhash"
s := dhash.NewNodeDir(fmt.Sprintf("%v:%v", listenIp, listenPort), fmt.Sprintf("%v:%v", broadcastIp, broadcastPort), dataDir)
s.MustStart()
s.MustJoin(fmt.Sprintf("%v:%v", joinIp, joinPort))

TODO

Docs
Add illustrations to the usage manual
Benchmark
Consecutively start 1-20 instances on equally powerful machines and benchmark against each size
Need 20 machines of equal and constant performance. Is anyone willing to lend me this for few days of benchmarking?
Add benchmark results to docs
