I had already posted the project a couple of years ago, and it gained some interest, but a lot of stuff has been done since then, especially regarding performance, a completely new JSON store, a REST API, various internals refactored, an improved JSONiq based query engine allowing updates, implementing set-oriented join optimizations, a now already dated web UI, a new Kotlin based CLI, a Python and TypeScript client to ease the use of Sirix... First prototypes from a precursor stem already from 2005. So, what is it all about? The system uses ideas from ZFS (a keyed index trie, storing…

Hey there HN! We’re Joe and Stopa, and today we’re open sourcing InstantDB, a client-side database that makes it easy to build real-time and collaborative apps like Notion and Figma. Building modern apps these days involves a lot of schleps. For a basic CRUD app you need to spin up servers, wire up endpoints, integrate auth, add permissions, and then marshal data from the backend to the frontend and back again. If you want to deliver a buttery smooth user experience, you’ll need to add optimistic updates and rollbacks. We do these steps over and over for every feature we build, which can…

Hi, my name is Anguel and I am one of the developers of WhoDB (https://github.com/clidey/whodb) I am not a fan of the dbeaver, beekeeper, adminer, etc experience because they are bloated, ugly, and at best okay but not great. Hence why I started working on WhoDB. The approach: - browser-based (chrome/firefox) - no bloat - jupyter notebook-like experience (Scratchpad) - built-in AI co-pilot with ollama (local) or openai/anthropic We just shipped query history and replay (time travel?) to the Scratchpad. Would love for you to check it out and give some feedback…

One year ago I open-sourced my very first 'real' project and shared it here. I was a college student in my senior year and desperately looking for a job. At the time of sharing it i couldn't even afford a domain and naively let someone buy the one i had my eyes on lol. It's been a hell of a year with this blowing up, me moving to another country, and switching 2 jobs. In a year we somehow managed to hit 26k stars, grow a 1000+ person discord community, and support 37 languages. I couldn't be more grateful for the community that helped this grow, but now i don't know what direction to take…

Hey HN! We’ve built Pretzel, an open-source data exploration and visualization tool that runs fully in the browser and can handle large files (200 MB CSV on my 8gb MacBook air is snappy). It’s also reactive - so if, for example, you change a filter, all the data transform blocks after it re-evaluate automatically. You can try it here: https://pretzelai.github.io/ (static hosted webpage) or see a demo video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=73wNEun_L7w You can play with the demo CSV that’s pre-loaded (GitHub data of text-editor adjacent projects) or upload…

As the creator of TerarkDB (acquired by ByteDance in 2019), I have developed ToplingDB in recent years. ToplingDB is forked from RocksDB, where we have replaced almost all components with more efficient alternatives(db_bench shows ToplingDB is about ~8x faster than RocksDB): * MemTable: SkipList is replaced by CSPP(Crash Safe Parallel Patricia trie), which is 8x faster. * SST: BlockBasedTable is replaced by ToplingZipTable, implemented by searchable compression algo, it is very small and fast, typically less than 1μs per lookup: * Keys/Indexes are compressed using NestLoudsTrie(a…

We just released our database, SpacetimeDB, on GitHub under the BSL 1.1 license. It converts to a free software license after a few years. The point of the database is that you upload application logic into the database as a WebAssembly stored procedure, so instead of clients connecting to a webserver they connect directly to the database. The database itself does authentication and you write your own authorization logic just like you would inside a webserver. We’ve developed our game, BitCraft (https://bitcraftonline.com) entirely in this way. All of the game state is stored and…
