Quadrium Database

Please note that this project is still under development and may not be suitable for production use. Contributions and feedback are welcome!

Quadrium (a.k.a QuadDB) is an experimental database management system (DBMS) developed in Go (Golang), tailored to proficiently manage NoSQL queries.

Current Features

  • Default AES Encryption: QuadDB offers default AES encryption for database collections, ensuring data security.
  • Configurability: Full configurability across all parameters, including server port, AES password key, and data storage directory.
  • Document-Oriented Format: Support for storing and querying JSON documents in a document-oriented database format.
  • GZ Compression: Built-in GZ compression functionality for optimized storage.
  • Admin Dashboard: A simple admin dashboard for viewing record counts and collections.

What is the QDB extention?

The .qdb extension is used for files that store JSONL (JSON Lines) data, where each line is a separate JSON object. To ensure data security and efficient storage, these files undergo two key processes:

  1. AES Encryption
    • The JSONL data is encrypted using the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES), a widely recognized encryption standard that provides robust security for sensitive information. This ensures that the data is protected from unauthorized access and tampering.
  2. GZip Compression
    • After encryption, the data is compressed using the GZip compression method. GZip is a popular compression algorithm that reduces the file size, making it easier to store and transfer while maintaining the integrity of the original data.

Together, these processes provide a secure and efficient way to store JSONL data, making the .qdb extension suitable for applications that require both data protection and optimization of storage space.
