The embedded database that goes brrr.
Stupid-fast, append-only, zero-server storage you drop into your app and forget about.
--- ``` 63,400 writes/sec 1,340,000 point reads/sec one fsync per batch ``` aof-db is a **tiny, blazing-fast, in-process** datastore. No daemon. No schema migrations. No 400 MB of dependencies. Just `import` it and start flooding it with data — it keeps up. ## Why people can't shut up about it - 🏎️ **Fast where it counts.** Append-only + group-commit: one `fsync` per *batch*, not per record. Bigger batches get **cheaper per item**. Throughput goes *up* under load, not down. - 🪶 **Featherweight.** In-process, near-zero footprint. Boots instantly, runs in memory, persists when you say so. - 🧷 **Durable, not fragile.** Every write is hash-chained and the log replays clean on open — crash-safe without the ceremony. - 🚀 **Scales with your ambition.** Same engine family as **crypto-database** — flip on the content-addressed DAG the day you need time-travel and tamper-evidence. Start fast, grow powerful. ## Install (10 seconds, tops) ```bash npm install aof-db # pip install aof-db # cargo add aof-db ``` ```js import { NedbCore } from "aof-db"; const db = new NedbCore(); console.time("100k"); for (let i = 0; i < 100_000; i++) db.put("events", String(i), JSON.stringify({ t: Date.now(), i })); db.flush(); // one durable group-commit for the whole burst console.timeEnd("100k"); // …go on, time it. ``` ## Built for Edge & embedded · high-throughput event logging · local-first apps · game state · CLIs · **anywhere "just make it fast" beats "stand up a server."** > **Note:** aof-db was previously published as `nitrodb`. The rename aligns the public package name with what it is — an append-only-file (AOF) fast-path distribution of NEDB. Same engine, same speed, new name.If aof-db just saved your afternoon, ⭐ it and tell a friend.
