- [x] Design interface - [x] Implement Sled backend - [x] Re-implement the SledCountedTree hack ~~on Sled backend~~ on all backends (i.e. over the abstraction) - [x] Convert Garage code to use generic interface - [x] Proof-read converted Garage code - [ ] Test everything well - [x] Implement sqlite backend - [x] Implement LMDB backend - [ ] (Implement Persy backend?) - [ ] (Implement other backends? (like RocksDB, ...)) - [x] Implement backend choice in config file and garage server module - [x] Add CLI for converting between DB formats - Exploit the new interface to put more things in transactions - [x] `.updated()` trigger on Garage tables Fix #284 **Bugs** - [x] When exporting sqlite, trees iterate empty?? - [x] LMDB doesn't work **Known issues for various back-ends** - Sled: - Eats all my RAM and also all my disk space - `.len()` has to traverse the whole table - Is actually quite slow on some operations - And is actually pretty bad code... - Sqlite: - Requires a lock to be taken on all operations. The lock is also taken when iterating on a table with `.iter()`, and the lock isn't released until the iterator is dropped. This means that we must be VERY carefull to not do anything else inside a `.iter()` loop or else we will have a deadlock! Most such cases have been eliminated from the Garage codebase, but there might still be some that remain. If your Garage-over-Sqlite seems to hang/freeze, this is the reason. - (adapter uses a bunch of unsafe code) - Heed (LMDB): - Not suited for 32-bit machines as it has to map the whole DB in memory. - (adpater uses a tiny bit of unsafe code) **My recommendation:** avoid 32-bit machines and use LMDB as much as possible. **Converting databases** is actually quite easy. For example from Sled to LMDB: ```bash cd src/db cargo run --features cli --bin convert -- -i path/to/garage/meta/db -a sled -o path/to/garage/meta/db.lmdb -b lmdb ``` Then, just add this to your `config.toml`: ```toml db_engine = "lmdb" ``` Co-authored-by: Alex Auvolat <alex@adnab.me> Reviewed-on: #322 Co-authored-by: Alex <alex@adnab.me> Co-committed-by: Alex <alex@adnab.me> |

Garage 
[ Website and documentation | Binary releases | Git repository | Matrix channel ]
Garage is a lightweight S3-compatible distributed object store, with the following goals:
- As self-contained as possible
- Easy to set up
- Highly resilient to network failures, network latency, disk failures, sysadmin failures
- Relatively simple
- Made for multi-datacenter deployments
Non-goals include:
- Extremely high performance
- Complete implementation of the S3 API
- Erasure coding (our replication model is simply to copy the data as is on several nodes, in different datacenters if possible)
Our main use case is to provide a distributed storage layer for small-scale self hosted services such as Deuxfleurs.
