As a side note, I learned today that Bloomberg actively maintains a BerkeleyDB fork as the key store backend bundled with their in-house SQL database called comdb2. But it doesn't look like it can be built as a separate package without modification.
This is a feature wishlist item about creating a new CNID backend that uses a modern light-weight database.
Our primary backend, dbd (database daemon), relies on BerkeleyDB which is by most measures abandoned software.
All in all, staying with BDB isn't future proof.
We have the mysql backend, but it relies on a separately managed database instance to use. What we need is something that can be spun up on demand, be fast and highly reliable.
Sqlite has been brought up in the past as a potentially strong contender.
