RocksDB

Databases

RocksDB is an open-source, embeddable key-value store developed by Facebook (Meta), optimized for fast storage such as SSDs and built on Google's LevelDB codebase using a log-structured merge-tree (LSM-tree) architecture. Software engineers use it as an embedded storage engine within larger systems, such as databases (e.g., CockroachDB, TiKV) and stream-processing platforms, to achieve high write throughput and efficient storage. It is written in C++ and offers bindings for languages like Java, making it a common backend choice for performance-critical applications.
