ThingsDB Node

An Open-Source SSDI Solution for Scalable and Robust Data Management

ThingsDB is an open-source Stored-State-Distributed-Interpreter (SSDI) solution written in the C programming language. It offers a powerful and intuitive way to store, manage, and process data, making it an ideal choice for a wide range of applications.

Key Features:

  • Robustness: The state of the interpreter is always synchronized across nodes, ensuring data integrity and high availability even in the event of node failures.
  • Ease of Use: ThingsDB provides a simple and intuitive programming language that makes it easy to develop applications.
  • Versatility: ThingsDB can replace both SQL databases and message-broker solutions like RabbitMQ, simplifying application architecture.

Capabilities:

  • Create procedures: Define custom functions to execute complex logic within the database.
  • Define types: Specify data structures to represent your data accurately and efficiently.
  • Emit events: Trigger actions based on data changes and keep applications informed.
  • Create tasks: Schedule background jobs to perform asynchronous operations.
  • Extend with modules: Integrate with external resources and platforms using modular plugins.

Benefits:

  • Performance: ThingsDB is optimized for speed and efficiency, ensuring fast data processing and retrieval.
  • Flexibility: ThingsDB's adaptable architecture allows it to fit seamlessly into various application scenarios.
  • Cost-Effectiveness: As an open-source solution, ThingsDB eliminates licensing costs, making it a budget-friendly option.

Installation

Docker

When using Docker, do not forget to mount a volume if you want ThingsDB to keep all changes.

For example:

docker run \
    -d \
    -p 9200:9200 \
    -p 9210:9210 \
    -p 9270:9270 \
    -p 8080:8080 \
    -v ~/thingsdb-data:/data \
    -v ~/thingsdb-modules:/modules \
    ghcr.io/thingsdb/node:latest \
    --init

☝️ Note: The --init argument is technically only required when running ThingsDB for the first time.

Replace the latest tag or build your own Docker image if you want to test using Python modules or Google Cloud support (see the getting started page for more info)

Run integration tests

Docker is required to run the integration tests.

docker build -t thingsdb/itest -f itest/Dockerfile .
docker run thingsdb/itest:latest

Or, if you want all the output:

docker run \
    -e THINGSDB_VERBOSE=1 \
    -e THINGSDB_MEMCHECK=1 \
    -e THINGSDB_LOGLEVEL=debug \
    -e THINGSDB_NODE_OUTPUT=true \
    thingsdb/itest:latest
