In Nubmq: A high performant key-value store engine built from first principlesThe link no longer works for me. New link seems to be https://github.com/nubskr/nubmq/blob/master/assets/nubmq_new...
In Nubmq: A high performant key-value store engine built from first principlesThe image here appears to be upside down (or rather rotated 180): https://github.com/nubskr/nubmq/blob/master/assets/architect...
It's not clear from the readme physically where the data is stored, nor where in the storage process the "congestion" is coming from.
I'm surprised there's no range scan. Range scans enable a whole swathe of functionality that make kv stores punch above their weight. I suppose that's more rocksdb/dynamo/bigtable/cassandra than redis/memcached, though.
