Description : Fast & simple storage - a Node.js-style LevelDB wrapper
LevelDB is a simple key/value data store built by Google, inspired by BigTable.
It's used in Google Chrome and many other products. LevelDB supports arbitrary
byte arrays as both keys and values, singular get, put and delete operations,
batched put and delete, bi-directional iterators and simple compression using
the very fast Snappy algorithm.
.
LevelUP aims to expose the features of LevelDB in a Node.js-friendly way. All
standard Buffer encoding types are supported, as is a special JSON encoding.
LevelDB's iterators are exposed as a Node.js-style readable stream a matching
writeable stream converts writes to batch operations.
.
LevelDB stores entries sorted lexicographically by keys. This makes LevelUP's
ReadStream interface a very powerful query mechanism.
.
Node.js is an event-based server-side _javascript_ engine.
