HyperDex: A Searchable Distributed Key-Value Store

From the webpage:

HyperDex is a distributed, searchable key-value store. HyperDex provides a unique search primitive which enables searches over stored values. By design, HyperDex retains the performance of traditional key-value stores while enabling support for the search operation.

The key features of HyperDex are:

  • Fast HyperDex has lower latency and higher throughput than most other key-value stores.
  • Searchable HyperDex enables lookups of non-primary data attributes. Such searches are implemented efficiently and contact a small number of servers.
  • Scalable HyperDex scales as more machines are added to the system.
  • Consistent The value you GET is always the latest value you PUT. Not just "eventually," but immediately and always.
  • Fault tolerant HyperDex handles failures. Data is automatically
    replicated on multiple machines so that failures do not cause data loss.
