Summary: Introducing new compaction style -- FIFO. FIFO compaction style has write amplification of 1 (+1 for WAL) and it deletes the oldest files when the total DB size exceeds pre-configured values. FIFO compaction style is suited for storing high-frequency event logs. Test Plan: Added a unit test Reviewers: dhruba, haobo, sdong Reviewed By: dhruba Subscribers: alberts, leveldb Differential Revision: https://reviews.facebook.net/D18765
RocksDB: A Persistent Key-Value Store for Flash and RAM Storage
RocksDB is developed and maintained by Facebook Database Engineering Team. It is built on on earlier work on LevelDB by Sanjay Ghemawat (sanjay@google.com) and Jeff Dean (jeff@google.com)
This code is a library that forms the core building block for a fast key value server, especially suited for storing data on flash drives. It has an Log-Structured-Merge-Database (LSM) design with flexible tradeoffs between Write-Amplification-Factor (WAF), Read-Amplification-Factor (RAF) and Space-Amplification-Factor (SAF). It has multi-threaded compactions, making it specially suitable for storing multiple terabytes of data in a single database.
