dice Segmented Write Ahead Log

Currently, we are dumping all the data in the string format in a file defined in the config.

Just wanted to know if using segmented log is in the roadmap or not. If yes then we can implement it using the library https://github.com/arriqaaq/aol

I have been exploring this library quite for a while. I understand its internals. Just need to learn how encoding and decoding works there.

Have a WAL implementation of my own. Please check it out https://github.com/stym06/rebuf

@stym06 Is it being used in production anywhere?

Jul 09 '24 13:07 VishalMCF

No its not production ready. There are a lot of bugs. Will be fixing them in the coming days

@stym06 Well what you have done is very original and impressive. The reason I suggested tidwall's because it is being used in production.

Jul 10 '24 06:07 VishalMCF

Right. Its a naive implementation till now!

Thanks for sharing. It was not in our roadmap yet. But definitely worth putting it in Icebox. Thanks @stym06 and @VishalMCF

@srinathv2 this is not a priority for us right now, we are still focussed on being a transient database.
