Inside RavenDB 4.0

Oren Eini, CEO of RavenDB, shares everything you need to know about the latest version of his distributed, non-relational document database. This book-length blog post is for you. Along with learning what RavenDB does, you get a behind-the-scenes take on the reasoning behind why each feature was designed.

Oren explains why he decided to make RavenDB one of the original NoSQL databases that is fully transactional while boosting performance within the ACID framework. With over 10 years of experience in developing databases, Oren tells why he wanted something that required as little overhead as possible from its users.
