The people keep the means of data hosting.
A Rust database you run yourself.
Queried in NashCQL. Certified by a mesh of plants.
Bureaucracy is a crate. Default intensity 25.
OurSQL is a memory-safe store for comrades who keep their own disks.
There is no landlord cloud. Each operator hosts a slice of the kollektiv.
The query language is NashCQL: English after a long march
(PERESTROJ, INZRT, ZAVERSHIT), typeable on a US keyboard.
The engine runs. The satire is specified. Intensity is one integer
0..=100. At 25 a competent app with retry can store and retrieve
rows. At 0 the bureau only talks. At 100 you are in a demo.
NashCQL is the US-keyboard rendering of "Nash SQL" ("our SQL"). Official docs are ASCII. The dolphin does not speak.
| Claim | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory-safe | Rust, no unsafe. Encrypted 16 KiB pages. WAL is CRC, not ciphertext. |
| Auth | HELLO + bilets after a key. First socket is founder. Bind stays localhost. |
| Multi-host | You run oursqld. Repair works. Mesh APPLY is whoever can TCP. |
| Oppressive | Dossiers, rations, accusations, confiscation, gulag rate limits |
| Functional | WAL, crash recovery, planner -- at intensity 25 |
This is 0.2.0. Localhost is the intended face. --mesh and --admin
are not a fortress.
