OrientDB 1.0…1.1
I fell in love with #OrientDB first time I came across it.
What I like about OrientDB are the following:
- A cool, high performance, #nosql DB.
- You can use it in the flavor you prefer: Document DB, Object DB, Graph DB.
- Use it Embedded, as a Server or Clustered.
- A NOSQL DB that supports SQL (like) queries.
- A liberal Apache2 license.
While 1.0 (around the corner) looks like an important milestone to reach, 1.1 that’s coming seems more exiting.
A list of some interesting features to come in version 1.1:
- Data compression at storage level - Storage efficiency
- Data repair tool - Will give some confidence should something go wrong in a production db
- Lucene integration - Should improve performance
- SSL support for binary & HTTP connections - Security during transmission is important.
- Time Machine (revisions/versioning) - Can address some interesting use cases
- Support for Stored procedures - We have applications with lot of things done as stored procedures (though I don’t like it), I expect support for stored procedures should make it easy to migrate to OrientDB.
- And others: Views, Sub queries, VFS, …
