FOEDUS: Fast Optimistic Engine for Data Unification Services

Overview

FOEDUS is a new transactional key-value store developed at Hewlett-Packard Labs that is optimized for a large number of CPU cores and NVRAM storage (or fast SSD). It is a handy C++ library you can either include in your source code (by invoking CMake script) or dynamically link to. In a nutshell, it is something like BerkeleyDB, but it is much more efficient on new hardware.

For more details, take a look at the overview paper.

Repositories

We have split the original repository into a few sub repositories for easier maintenance.

• foedus_code : Main source code repository.
• foedus_oa_papers : Open Access Publication (papers/slides etc) repository.
• foedus_papers : (So far private) Drafts/Non-OA Publication repository.
• foedus_results : Experimental results and other large binary files.

Most of you would be only interested in foedus_code. Especially, start with reading READMEs in these folders:

• foedus_code.
• foedus_code/foedus-core.
