Key features:

• Embedded .NET family assembly, platform independent and without references to other libraries.
• Multi-threaded, ACID compliant, with a solution for deadlocks resolving/elimination, parallel reads and synchronized writes/reads.
• No fixed scheme for table names (construction and access on the fly).
• Tables can reside in mixed locations: different folders, hard drives, memory, in-memory with disk persistence.
• Liana-Trie indexing technology. Database indexes (keys) never need to be defragmented. Speed of insert/update/remove operations doesn't change during the time.
• Ability to access Key/Value pair of a table by physical link, that can economize time for joining necessary data structures.
• No limits for database size (except "long" size for each table and physical resources constraints).
• Low memory and physical space consumption, also while random inserts and updates. Updates reside the same physical space, when possible or configured.
• High performance of CRUD operations. When you need, unleash DBreeze power and get 500000 key/value pairs insert or 260K updates per second per core into sorted table on the hard drive of standard PC (benchmark in year 2012).
• High speed of random keys batch inserts and updates (update mode is selectable).
• Range selects / Traversing (Forward, Backward, From/To, Skip, StartsWith etc). Remove keys, change keys.
• Keys and values, on the low level, are always byte arrays.
• Max. key size is 65KB, max. value size is 2GB. Value can be represented as a set of columns, where can be stored data types of fixed or dynamic length. Every dynamic datablock (BLOB) can be of size 2GB.
• Rich set of conversion functions from/to between byte[] and other data types.
• Nested / Fractal tables which can reside inside of master tables values.
• Incremental backup/restore option.
• Integrated text-search subsystem (full-text/partial).
• Integrated object database layer.
• Fast multi-parameter search subsystem with powerful query possibilities.
• Integrated Vector Database Layer / Similarity Search Engine / Clustering, based on HNSW Graphs and TurboQuant vectors compression.
• Integrated binary and JSON serializer Biser.NET
• High Availability, Redundancy and Fault Tolerance via Raft.NET
• DBreeze is a foundation for complex data storage solutions (graph/neuro, object, document, text search etc. data layers). Please, study documentation to understand all abilities of DBreeze.
