It comes with a flat-file database for JSON documents and provides MongoDB-like querying capabilities.

Key Features

  • Powerful and rich querying language.

  • Deep document indexes on arbitrary fields.

  • Compressed storage of documents.

  • Support for multiple backends (e.g. file-based storage, MongoDB).

  • Support for database transactions (currently only for the file-based backend).
