LevelDB stores keys and values in arbitrary byte arrays, and data is
|
|
|
|
|
sorted by key. It supports batching writes, forward and backward
|
|
|
|
|
iteration, and compression of the data via Google's Snappy compression
|
|
|
|
|
library.

Still, LevelDB is not a SQL database. Like other NoSQL and Dbm stores,
|
|
|
|
|
it does not have a relational data model, it does not support SQL
|
|
|
|
|
queries, and it has no support for indexes. Applications use LevelDB as
|
|
|
|
|
a library, as it does not provide a server or command-line interface.
