An Overview of
Berkley DB
by
David Segleau
<dave.segleau at oracle.com>
Berkeley DB originated at the University of California,
Berkeley as part of the transition (1986 to 1994) from 4.3BSD
to 4.4BSD and of the effort to remove AT&T-encumbered code.
It has evolved a great deal since then and is now part
of Oracle where it is distributed with source code under
a dual use license.
Berkeley DB (BDB) is a computer software library that provides
a high-performance embedded database, with bindings in C, C++,
PHP, Java, Perl, Python, Ruby, Tcl, Smalltalk, and other languages.
BDB stores arbitrary key/data pairs as byte arrays, and supports
multiple data items for a single key. BDB can support thousands
of simultaneous threads of control or concurrent processes
manipulating databases as large as 256 terabytes, on a wide
variety of operating systems including most Unix-like and
Windows systems, and real-time operating systems.
