Build real-time Web apps with RethinkDB

via

 

RethinkDB is an open source database for the real-time Web. It has a built-in change notification system that streams live updates to your application. Instead of polling for new data, you can have the database push the latest to changes to you. The ability to subscribe to streaming updates from the persistence layer can simplify your application architecture and make it easier to support clients that maintain persistent connections to your back end.

 

RethinkDB is a schemaless JSON document store, but it also supports relational features like table joins. RethinkDB supports clustering, which makes it easy to scale. You can configure sharding and replication for the cluster through the database's built-in administrative Web interface. The latest release of RethinkDB, version 2.1, brings automatic fail-over to clusters with three or more servers.
