Erlfdb is an Erlang client for FoundationDB. Elixir projects can use it directly.
FoundationDB is an open-source, distributed key-value store that gives you strictly serializable ACID transactions across a cluster of machines. It handles the hard parts of distributed storage (consistency, fault tolerance, replication) so you can build whatever data model you need on top of it.
Like all FDB bindings, erlfdb uses NIFs to interface with the official C API. There are no other dependencies.
The project began as couchdb-erlfdb, and reached stability by the CouchDB team, but development stopped. In early 2024, we forked it to continue development and releases.
Today we released v1.0. There are no changes from v0.3.4, but we wanted to signal to the community that the library is considered stable for dependent projects.

Thanks to the CouchDB team and other contributors for creating the original Erlang bindings.
