This project introduces SocketDB, a novel real-time SQL database system specifically
engineered to meet the evolving demands of contemporary applications requiring
instantaneous data updates and robust query processing capabilities. By integrating a
WebSocket-based notification system, SocketDB offers a unique approach, allowing
clients to subscribe and instantly receive updates, thus facilitating real-time interactions
and analytics. Built on a columnar data layout, it ensures efficient query performance and
storage optimization, particularly beneficial for read-intensive scenarios. The core of
SocketDB is enhanced by a recursive descent SQL parser, enabling comprehensive support
for a wide array of SQL operations, making it highly adaptable to complex data
manipulation needs. Additionally, SocketDB incorporates advanced features such as data
compression with the Zstandard algorithm, ensuring reduced storage footprint without
compromising access speed. Embedded fault tolerance mechanisms and scalable
infrastructure further reinforce its reliability and applicability in diverse environments.
Aimed at developers and businesses alike, SocketDB is poised to transform real-time data
handling, offering a scalable, efficient, and user-friendly platform for dynamic data
management and analysis.
