BoltDB Description
Bolt is a pure-Go key/value store that was inspired by Howard Chu's LMDB Project. The project's goal is to provide a simple, reliable, and fast database for projects that do not require a full database server like Postgres or MySQL. Bolt is intended to be used as a low-level piece. The API will be simple and focus only on setting values and getting values. That's all. Bolt's original purpose was to provide a pure Go key/value storage and not add unnecessary features. The project has been a great success. The project's scope is limited, but it is still complete. It takes a lot of energy and time to maintain an open-source database. Code changes can have unintended consequences, sometimes even catastrophic ones. Even simple changes require hours of testing and validation.

VMware Tanzu GemFire
VMware Tanzu GemFire, a distributed key-value store with in-memory key-value storage, performs read-and-write operations at lightning fast speeds. It has high availability parallel message queues, continuous availability, an event-driven architecture that can scale dynamically with no downtime, and an event-driven architecture. Tanzu GemFire scales linearly as your data requirements increase to support high performance, real-time apps. Traditional databases are often too fragile or unreliable to be used with microservices. Every modern distributed architecture requires a cache. Applications can use Tanzu GemFire to get fast responses to data access requests and always receive new data. Applications can subscribe to real time events to respond to changes instantly. Continuous queries from Tanzu GemFire notify your application whenever new data becomes available. This reduces overhead on your SQL database.

Amazon DynamoDB
Amazon DynamoDB, a key-value and document databank, delivers single-digit millisecond performance on any scale. It is a fully managed, multiregional, multimaster, durable database that offers built-in security, backup, restore, and in-memory cache for internet-scale apps. DynamoDB can process more than 10 trillion requests per hour and can handle peak requests of more than 20,000,000 requests per second.
Many of the fastest-growing businesses in the world, such as Lyft, Redfin, and Airbnb, as well as enterprises like Samsung, Toyota and Capital One, rely on DynamoDB's scale and performance to support mission-critical workloads.

LevelDB
LevelDB is a fast key/value storage library that Google has created. It provides an ordered mapping of string keys to string value. Keys and values can be stored in arbitrary byte arrays. Data is stored in key order. To override the order of the data, callers can provide a custom comparator function. Multiple changes can be made to an atomic batch. To maintain a consistent view of data, users can create a temporary snapshot. Data can be used for forward and backward iteration. Snappy is used to automatically compress data. External activity (file system operations, etc.) The information is transmitted via a virtual interface to allow users to customize the operating system interactions. A database with over a million entries is used. Each entry is assigned a 16-byte key and a 100-byte value. The benchmark reduces the size of the values to approximately half of their original size. The benchmark lists the performance of sequential reading in the forward and reverse directions, as well as the performance of random lookups.
