Farm Engine database

Farm engine is a storage focused database made in Rust that aims to use close to no RAM and to optimize through disk usage for efficiency while providing a custom index engine interface so anyone could create their own index engines for it at any given time.

This database is currently in an early alpha state but it has a few cool features ready to use and heavily tested in a production environment:

• Custom CSV read only index with yes/no/skip flags that allows to use a CSV file as a database.
• Table implementation.

There are a few experimental features within some branches:

• Binary tree index WIP implementation located at msh-2 branch.
• CSV file as input with custom type transformation and de-serialization located at FARM-73 branch.

History

We created Farm Engine as part of a bigger project intended to use no RAM and first deployed as part of a smaller POC project to test it’s viability in both efficiency and flexibility in really limited resource environments with a huge success.
