AvocadoDB

My colleagues and I started developing a document-store, which focuses on durability of the data taking advantage of new technologies like SSD, support for graph and geo algorithms needed in social networks, ease of use for the developer and minimal effort to operate for the administrator.

Compilation

Please check the wiki for installation and compilation instructions:
