It would be nice to see that eleveldb driver that Klarna was working on for Mnesia shipped with OTP, and directly usable. GitHub - klarna/mnesia_eleveldb: An eleveldb backend for Mnesia · GitHub

As far as I can see, LevelDB itself would need to run outside of OTP, or am I missing something?
(Not that this is a problem per se, but it is something to be aware of.)

Yes, it would. That would be the major difference between the standard Mnesia which uses dets as a backend and one using leveldb. Dets is part of the standard BEAM and implemented in it while leveldb is not. That is one reason I that I expect that leveldb will not be included in the standard OTP release.

Seems that Riak Team are working in an implementation called leveled in pure Erlang GitHub - martinsumner/leveled: A pure Erlang Key/Value store - based on a LSM-tree, optimised for HEAD requests · GitHub
This seems to be a strong candidate to be included in the OTP release, what do you think?
