Kv store

What is kv store

A "KV store" (Key-Value store) is a type of database or data storage system that stores data as a collection of key-value pairs. In a KV store, each piece of data is associated with a unique identifier (key), which is used to retrieve or manipulate the corresponding value. Key-value stores are often used for fast and efficient storage and retrieval of data, especially in applications where performance and scalability are critical. Here are some key characteristics of KV stores:

Simplicity: KV stores typically offer a simple and straightforward data model, consisting of key-value pairs. This simplicity makes them easy to understand, use, and integrate into applications.

Flexibility: Key-value stores are schema-less, meaning that different key-value pairs can have different structures or data types. This flexibility allows developers to store a wide range of data types and structures without the constraints of a fixed schema.

High Performance: KV stores are optimized for fast read and write operations, making them well-suited for use cases that require high throughput and low latency. They achieve this by minimizing the overhead associated with complex data models and transactional guarantees.

Scalability: Many KV stores are designed to be highly scalable, allowing them to handle large volumes of data and high request rates across distributed clusters of servers. They often support horizontal scaling by adding additional nodes to the cluster as demand grows.

User can add records, search, count data by key prefix.User can take backup of the cf by copying the data to another cf.

Attributes

• Name: A name given to agent for identification.
• Active: This one denotes if the agent is active or not.
• Counter CF: # todo
• Host: User can define the host where the cf should be hosted.
