VPack as block storage for SQlite #99

Open dumblob opened 3 years ago

dumblob commented 3 years ago

Just curious - has anyone tried on some project using VelocyPack as the backend storage for SQlite? Any benchmarks or experience or lessons learned?

Interesting Idea. No, we haven't heard of somebody doing this. One implementation problem could be, that you need a C interface if I grasp this correctly? Sqlite is pure C if I get this right? VPack otoh is implemented in C++.

Yes, SQlite is pure C and VPack is C++. But I somehow assumed the C++ implementation offers also a C interface. If it's not the case, then I'm pretty sure nobody used VPack as SQlite backend because that'd be much more work than "just plumbing".
