In plain words
Duramap is a Go library that provides a disk-backed, thread-safe map built on bbolt. It allows developers to store key-value data persistently on disk while maintaining concurrent access safety. The library is designed for Go applications that need reliable data persistence with thread-safe operations. It targets developers working with Go who require a simple alternative to in-memory maps when durability and safe concurrent access are needed.

Whirlwind – Async concurrent hashmap for Rust2024 · github.com · ▲140Hey HN, this is Will and David from Fortress (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41426998). We use a lot of async Rust internally, and created this library out of a need for an async-aware concurrent hashmap since there weren’t many available in the Rust ecosystem. Whirlwind is a sharded HashMap with a fully asynchronous API. Just as dashmap is a replacement for std::sync::RwLock, whirlwind aims to be a replacement for tokio::sync::RwLock. It has a similar design and performance characteristics to dashmap, but seems to perform better in read-heavy workloads with tokio's…
go-nbd – A Pure Go NBD Server and Client2023 · github.com · ▲113Hey HN! I just released go-nbd, a lightweight Go library for effortlessly creating NBD servers and clients. Its a neat tool for creating custom Linux block devices with arbitrary backends, such as a file, byte slice or what I'm planning to use it for, a tape drive. While there are a few partially abandoned projects like this out there already, this library tries to be as maintainable as possible by only implementing the most recent handshake revision and baseline functionality for both the client and the server, while still having enough support to be useful. I'd love to get your feedback :)
