SableDb is a key-value NoSQL database that utilizes RocksDb as its storage engine and is compatible with the Redis protocol. It aims to reduce memory costs and increase capacity compared to Redis. SableDb features include Redis-compatible access via any Redis client, up to 64K databases support, asynchronous replication using transaction log tailing and TLS connectivity support.

Oh, and it's written in Rust :)

SableDb is supported on all major OS: Linux, macOS and Windows

git clone https://github.com/sabledb-io/sabledb.git
cd sabledb
cargo build --release
cargo test --release

On Windows, we require MSYS2 terminal for building SableDb.

First, ensure that you have the required toolchain (beside Rust):

pacman -Sy git                                  \
           mingw-w64-clang-x86_64-toolchain     \
           mingw-w64-clang-x86_64-python3       \
           mingw-w64-clang-x86_64-cmake         \
           mingw-w64-clang-x86_64-libffi        \
           unzip                                \
           mingw-w64-clang-x86_64-gcc-compat

git clone https://github.com/sabledb-io/sabledb.git
cd sabledb
CFLAGS="-D_ISOC11_SOURCE" cargo build --release
cargo test --release

./target/release/sabledb

Usage:

$target/release/sabledb [sabledb.ini]

docker build -t sabledb:latest .
docker run -p 6379:6379 sabledb:latest

If you prefer to use docker-compose, you can use the following command:

docker compose up --build

To tail the logs, use the below command:

docker exec -it sabledb-sabledb-1 /bin/bash -c "tail -f /var/lib/sabledb/log/sabledb.log.*"

Note: the container name (in the above example: sabledb-sabledb-1) can be found using the command docker ps

• Persistent data using RocksDb - use SableDb as a persistent storage using Redis's API
• TLS connections
• Replication using tailing of the transaction log
• Highly configurable, but comes with sensible default values
• Use the sb command line utility (target/release/sb) for performance testing
• Transactions ( MULTI / EXEC )

SableDb uses its own benchmarking tool named sb ("SableDb Benchmark"). sb supports the following commands:

• set
• get
• lpush
• lpop
• rpush
• rpop
• incr
• ping
• hset

Run sb --help to get the full help message.

Below is a simple ( ping ) test conducted locally using WSL2 on Windows 10 (same machine is running both SableDb and sb...):

set test, on the same set-up (local machine, WSL2 on Windows 10):

IMPORTANT

SableDb is under constant development, if you are missing a command, feel free to open an issue and visit this page again in couple of days

Note: Each mset command is equivalent of 10 set commands

The increment command is unique because it uses a "read-modify-update" in order to ensure the atomicity of the action which in a multi-threaded environment causes a challenge
