libmdbx
======================================
Revised and extended descendant of [Lightning Memory-Mapped Database](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lightning_Memory-Mapped_Database) (aka _LMDB_).
Русскоязычная версия [здесь](README-RU.md).
Revised and extended descendant of [Lightning Memory-Mapped
Database](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lightning_Memory-Mapped_Database)
(aka _LMDB_). Permissive non-copyleft BSD-style [OpenLDAP Public License
2.8](LICENSE). Русскоязычная версия этого README [здесь](README-RU.md).
_libmdbx_ is superior to LMDB in terms of features and reliability, not
inferior in performance. _libmdbx_ works on Linux, FreeBSD, MacOS X and
other systems compliant with POSIX.1-2008, but also support Windows as a
complementary platform.
The next version is under active non-public development, which will
radically change both the API and the database format. The goal of this
revolution is to provide a clearer and more reliable API, add more
features and new database properties.
The next version is under active non-public development and will be
released as **_MithrilDB_** and `libmithrildb` for libraries & packages.
Admittedly mythical [Mithril](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mithril) is
resembling silver but being stronger and lighter than steel. Therefore
_MithrilDB_ is rightly relevant name.
_MithrilDB_ will be radically different from _libmdbx_ by the new
database format and API based on C++17, as well as the [Apache 2.0
License](https://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0). The goal of this
revolution is to provide a clearer and robust API, add more features and
new valuable properties of database.
