"It's fast and efficient."
What do you like best about RocksDB?

Speed is what I like the most about RocksDB. Reading and writing data is very fast compared to other types of storage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about RocksDB?

What I don't like is there's no automatic replication of data to multiple servers. We have to manually set up a process to copy data to each machine if we want to have no single point of failure. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"RocksDb - Specify java docs plz"
What do you like best about RocksDB?

Log-structured merge tree implementation. Once you've got acquainted with it, you could do really awesome things. And the latency numbers are great. Although RocksDb is not of those that are easy to use, still if you would manage to master it you would gain a reliable, solid instrument not a kind of a swiss knife but rather machete like that would allow you to reach any of your engineering goals. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about RocksDB?

Pure java documentation. Product requires being familiar with some advanced c++ and good understanding of what is hidden under the hood. High entry level. One simply can't use it for 100% 'from the box'. However, I am speaking only about the java programmers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
