KiviDB is a memory database designed to be faster and more efficient than Redis, built with Rust for optimal performance.
Many existing memory databases suffer from issues like garbage collection pauses and memory blow-ups during snapshots, leading to out-of-memory errors. KiviDB aims to address these challenges by leveraging Rust's capabilities while incorporating the best features from other databases.
Started KiviDB to explore Rust and address memory management issues faced in previous projects.
Utilized AI for design decisions while ensuring the database supports RESP2 and RESP3 protocols.
Leveraged AWS credits for infrastructure to run and benchmark KiviDB effectively.
