Review on Kyoto Tycoon by Fred Griffin

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Awesome Key Value Store implementation

I used to use it in school with Java (we had so many options because there was no one like this when i graduated), but now that its written completely C++ / Visual Studio 2010 + Windows 8 Metro UI/WinRT API's we can easily do things using only our own IDE! We did have some performance problems at first after installing from source code as opposed by precompiled binaries which were usually available online somewhere else; however if you really want speed try compiling yourself - maybe even get help along way through? You will need good understanding since they are not well documented or easy tutorials out ther anywhere yet!! So far all my experience has been great about Kyotocabinet library itself though their documentation needs more work done upon them still very helpful tho :). Nowadays is pretty much everything possible within such an awesome toolkit without having trouble working around those limitations etcetc.. It's fast and easy to use. We can easily build our own data structure with it. The documentation is good enough and has examples that are very helpful when building new features. I like how easy it is to extend the library. We have been able to implement some cool stuff using the library. The only downside is that there isn't any support for C++11 or boost. If you are looking for a simple key-value store, this is the right tool for you. Building a distributed system with Kyoto Tycoon.
