Maintained fork by Structured World Foundation for the CoordiNode database engine. Based on fjall-rs/lsm-tree. We contribute patches upstream and maintain additional features needed for CoordiNode (zstd compression, custom sequence number generators, batch get, intra-L0 compaction, security hardening).

A K.I.S.S. implementation of log-structured merge trees (LSM-trees/LSMTs) in Rust.

Note

This crate only provides a primitive LSM-tree, not a full storage engine. For example, it does not ship with a write-ahead log. You probably want to use https://github.com/fjall-rs/fjall instead.

About

This is the most feature-rich LSM-tree implementation in Rust! It features:

• Thread-safe BTreeMap-like API
• Mostly safe & 100% stable Rust
• Block-based tables with compression support & prefix truncation
  • Optional block hash indexes in data blocks for faster point lookups [3]
  • Per-level filter/index block pinning configuration
• Range & prefix searching with forward and reverse iteration
• Block caching to keep hot data in memory
• File descriptor caching with upper bound to reduce fopen syscalls
• AMQ filters (currently Bloom filters) to improve point lookup performance
• Multi-versioning of KVs, enabling snapshot reads
• Optionally partitioned block index & filters for better cache efficiency [1]
• Leveled and FIFO compaction
• Optional key-value separation for large value workloads [2], with automatic garbage collection
• Single deletion tombstones ("weak" deletion)
• Optional compaction filters to run custom logic during compactions

Keys are limited to 65536 bytes, values are limited to 2^32 bytes. As is normal with any kind of storage engine, larger keys and values have a bigger performance impact.
