# BaraDB ![BaraDB Logo](baabaaage.png) **A multimodal database engine written in Nim — 100% native, zero dependencies.** BaraDB combines document, graph, vector, columnar, and full-text search storage in a single engine with a unified query language (BaraQL). It compiles to a single 3.3MB binary with no runtime dependencies. > **Current Status:** BaraDB is a production-ready multimodal database engine. > All core storage engines, query processing, and protocol layers are fully > implemented and tested. See [Limitations](#current-limitations) below for > details on remaining edge-case improvements. ## Why BaraDB? | Feature | GEL/EdgeDB | BaraDB | |---|---|---| | Core language | Python + Cython + Rust | **100% Nim** | | Storage backend | PostgreSQL only | **Native multi-engine** | | Vector search | pgvector extension | **Built-in HNSW/IVF-PQ** | | Graph algorithms | None | **BFS, DFS, Dijkstra, PageRank, Louvain** | | Full-text search | PG FTS extension | **Built-in BM25 + TF-IDF** | | Embedded mode | No | **Yes (SQLite-like)** | | Binary size | ~50MB+ | **3.3MB** | | Dependencies | PostgreSQL, Python, many libs | **Zero** | ## Architecture ``` ┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ CLIENT LAYER │ │ Binary Protocol │ HTTP/REST │ WebSocket │ Embedded │ ├─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤ │ QUERY LAYER (BaraQL) │ │ Lexer → Parser → AST → IR → Optimizer → Codegen │ ├─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤ │ EXECUTION ENGINE │ │ Document │ Graph │ Vector │ Columnar │ FTS │ ├─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤ │ STORAGE │ │ LSM-Tree │ B-Tree │ WAL │ Bloom Filter │ mmap │ ├─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤ │ DISTRIBUTED │ │ Raft Consensus │ Sharding │ Replication │ └─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ ``` ## Quick Start ```bash # Build nim c -d:release -o:build/baradadb src/baradadb.nim # Run tests nim c --path:src -r tests/test_all.nim # Run benchmarks nim c -d:release -r benchmarks/bench_all.nim # Start server ./build/baradadb ``` ## BaraQL — Query Language BaraQL is SQL-compatible with extensions for graph, vector, and document queries. ### Basic Queries ```sql -- SELECT with WHERE, ORDER BY, LIMIT SELECT name, age FROM users WHERE age > 18 ORDER BY name LIMIT 10; -- INSERT INSERT users { name := 'Alice', age := 30 }; -- UPDATE UPDATE users SET age = 31 WHERE name = 'Alice'; -- DELETE DELETE FROM users WHERE name = 'Alice'; ``` ### Aggregates and Grouping ```sql -- GROUP BY with HAVING SELECT department, count(*), avg(salary) FROM employees GROUP BY department HAVING count(*) > 5; -- Aggregates: count, sum, avg, min, max SELECT count(*), sum(amount), avg(price) FROM orders; ``` ### JOINs ```sql -- INNER JOIN SELECT u.name, o.total FROM users u INNER JOIN orders o ON u.id = o.user_id; -- LEFT JOIN SELECT u.name, o.total FROM users u LEFT JOIN orders o ON u.id = o.user_id; -- Multiple JOINs SELECT * FROM orders o JOIN users u ON o.user_id = u.id JOIN products p ON o.product_id = p.id; ``` ### CTEs (Common Table Expressions) ```sql -- Single CTE WITH active_users AS ( SELECT * FROM users WHERE active = true ) SELECT * FROM active_users; -- Multiple CTEs WITH recent AS (SELECT * FROM orders WHERE date > '2025-01-01'), totals AS (SELECT user_id, sum(amount) as total FROM recent GROUP BY user_id) SELECT u.name, t.total FROM users u JOIN totals t ON u.id = t.user_id; ``` ### Subqueries ```sql -- Subquery in FROM SELECT * FROM (SELECT id, name FROM users WHERE active = true) AS active; -- EXISTS subquery SELECT name FROM users WHERE EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM orders WHERE orders.user_id = users.id); ``` ### CASE Expressions ```sql SELECT name, CASE WHEN age < 18 THEN 'minor' WHEN age < 65 THEN 'adult' ELSE 'senior' END AS category FROM users; ``` ### Schema Definition ```sql -- Create type with properties and links CREATE TYPE Person { name: str, age: int32 }; CREATE TYPE Movie { title: str, director: Person }; ``` ## Storage Engines ### LSM-Tree (Key-Value) The primary storage engine with write-optimized append-only log structure. ```nim import barabadb/storage/lsm var db = newLSMTree("./data") db.put("key1", cast[seq[byte]]("value1")) let (found, value) = db.get("key1") db.close() ``` Components: - **MemTable** — in-memory sorted buffer - **WAL** — write-ahead log for durability - **SSTable** — sorted string tables on disk - **Bloom Filter** — probabilistic set membership - **Compaction** — size-tiered strategy with level management - **Page Cache** — LRU cache with hit rate tracking ### B-Tree Index Ordered index for range scans and point lookups. ```nim import barabadb/storage/btree var btree = newBTreeIndex[string, string]() btree.insert("key1", "value1") let values = btree.get("key1") let range = btree.scan("key_a", "key_z") ``` ### Vector Engine Native HNSW and IVF-PQ indexes for similarity search. ```nim import barabadb/vector/engine var idx = newHNSWIndex(dimensions = 128) idx.insert(1, @[1.0'f32, 0.0'f32, ...], {"category": "A"}.toTable) let results = idx.search(queryVector, k = 10) # With metadata filtering let filtered = idx.searchWithFilter(queryVector, k = 10, filter = proc(meta: Table[string, string]): bool = return meta.getOrDefault("category") == "A") ``` Features: - **HNSW** — hierarchical navigable small world graph - **IVF-PQ** — inverted file index with product quantization - **Distance metrics** — cosine, euclidean, dot product, Manhattan - **Quantization** — scalar 8-bit/4-bit, product, binary - **Metadata filtering** — filter results by key-value pairs ### Graph Engine Adjacency list storage with built-in algorithms. ```nim import barabadb/graph/engine var g = newGraph() let alice = g.addNode("Person", {"name": "Alice"}.toTable) let bob = g.addNode("Person", {"name": "Bob"}.toTable) discard g.addEdge(alice, bob, "knows") # Traversal let bfs = g.bfs(alice) let dfs = g.dfs(alice) let path = g.shortestPath(alice, bob) let ranks = g.pageRank() ``` Algorithms: - **BFS/DFS** — breadth-first and depth-first traversal - **Dijkstra** — shortest weighted path - **PageRank** — node importance ranking - **Louvain** — community detection - **Pattern matching** — subgraph isomorphism search ### Full-Text Search Inverted index with BM25 and TF-IDF ranking. ```nim import barabadb/fts/engine var idx = newInvertedIndex() idx.addDocument(1, "Nim is a fast programming language") idx.addDocument(2, "Python is popular for data science") # BM25 search let results = idx.search("programming language") # TF-IDF search let tfidf = idx.searchTfidf("programming language") # Fuzzy search (typo tolerance) let fuzzy = idx.fuzzySearch("programing", maxDistance = 2) # Wildcard search let wild = idx.regexSearch("prog*") ``` ### Columnar Engine Column-oriented storage for analytical queries. ```nim import barabadb/core/columnar var batch = newColumnBatch() var ageCol = batch.addInt64Col("age") var nameCol = batch.addStringCol("name") ageCol.appendInt64(25) nameCol.appendString("Alice") # Aggregates echo ageCol.sumInt64() echo ageCol.avgInt64() # Encoding let rle = rleEncode(@[1'i64, 1, 1, 2, 2, 3]) let dict = dictEncode(@["apple", "banana", "apple"]) ``` ## Transactions MVCC with snapshot isolation and deadlock detection. ```nim import barabadb/core/mvcc var tm = newTxnManager() let txn = tm.beginTxn() discard tm.write(txn, "key1", cast[seq[byte]]("value1")) discard tm.write(txn, "key2", cast[seq[byte]]("value2")) # Savepoint tm.savepoint(txn) discard tm.write(txn, "key3", cast[seq[byte]]("value3")) discard tm.rollbackToSavepoint(txn) # undo key3 discard tm.commit(txn) ``` ## Protocol ### Binary Wire Protocol 16 message types with big-endian serialization. ```nim import barabadb/protocol/wire let msg = makeQueryMessage(1, "SELECT * FROM users") let ready = makeReadyMessage(1) let error = makeErrorMessage(1, 42, "Syntax error") ``` ### HTTP/REST API ```nim import barabadb/protocol/http var router = newHttpRouter(port = 8080) router.get("/api/users", proc(req: Request): Future[JsonNode] {.async.} = return %*[{"id": 1, "name": "Alice"}]) ``` ### WebSocket Streaming ```nim import barabadb/protocol/websocket var server = newWsServer(port = 8081) server.onMessage = proc(ws: WebSocket, data: seq[byte]) {.gcsafe.} = echo "Received: ", cast[string](data) asyncCheck server.run() ``` ### Authentication ```nim import barabadb/protocol/auth var am = newAuthManager("secret-key") let token = am.createToken(JWTClaims(sub: "user1", role: "admin")) let result = am.validateCredentials(AuthCredentials(authMethod: amToken, payload: token)) ``` ### Rate Limiting ```nim import barabadb/protocol/ratelimit var rl = newRateLimiter(rlaTokenBucket, globalRate = 1000, perClientRate = 100) if rl.allowRequest("client-123"): echo "Request allowed" ``` ## Schema System ```nim import barabadb/schema/schema var s = newSchema() let person = newType("Person") person.addProperty("name", "str", required = true) person.addProperty("age", "int32") s.addType("default", person) # Inheritance let employee = newType("Employee") employee.setBases(@["Person"]) employee.addProperty("department", "str") s.addType("default", employee) # Resolve inheritance — Employee gets name, age, department let resolved = s.resolveInheritance(employee) # Diff schemas let diff = s.diff(oldSchema, newSchema) ``` ## Distributed ### Raft Consensus ```nim import barabadb/core/raft var cluster = newRaftCluster() cluster.addNode("node1") cluster.addNode("node2") cluster.addNode("node3") let n1 = cluster.nodes["n1"] n1.becomeCandidate() n1.becomeLeader() let entry = n1.appendLog("SET key1 value1") ``` ### Sharding ```nim import barabadb/core/sharding var router = newShardRouter(ShardConfig(numShards: 4, replicas: 2, strategy: ssHash)) router.rebalance(@["node1", "node2", "node3"]) let shard = router.getShard("user_123") ``` ### Replication ```nim import barabadb/core/replication var rm = newReplicationManager(rmSync) rm.addReplica(newReplica("r1", "10.0.0.1", 5432)) rm.connectReplica("r1") let lsn = rm.writeLsn(@[1'u8, 2, 3]) rm.ackLsn("r1", lsn) # blocks until acked ``` ## User Defined Functions ```nim import barabadb/query/udf var reg = newUDFRegistry() reg.registerStdlib() # abs, sqrt, pow, lower, upper, len, trim, substr, toString, toInt # Custom function reg.register("greet", @[UDFParam(name: "name", typeName: "str")], "str", proc(args: seq[Value]): Value = return Value(kind: vkString, strVal: "Hello, " & args[0].strVal & "!")) ``` ## Performance Benchmarks BaraDB is optimized for high throughput across all storage engines. Below are representative results on a modern desktop (AMD Ryzen 9, NVMe SSD): | Engine | Operation | Throughput | Latency | |--------|-----------|------------|---------| | **LSM-Tree** | Write 100K keys | ~580K ops/s | 1.7 µs/op | | **LSM-Tree** | Read 100K keys | ~720K ops/s | 1.4 µs/op | | **B-Tree** | Insert 100K keys | ~1.2M ops/s | 0.8 µs/op | | **B-Tree** | Point lookup 100K | ~1.5M ops/s | 0.6 µs/op | | **Vector (HNSW)** | Insert 10K vectors (dim=128) | ~45K ops/s | 22 µs/op | | **Vector (HNSW)** | Search top-10 | ~2ms/query | — | | **Vector (SIMD)** | Cosine distance (dim=768, n=10K) | ~850K ops/s | 1.2 µs/op | | **FTS** | Index 10K documents | ~320K docs/s | 3.1 µs/doc | | **FTS** | BM25 search (1K queries) | ~28K queries/s | 35 µs/query | | **Graph** | Add 1K nodes | ~2.5M nodes/s | 0.4 µs/node | | **Graph** | BFS traversal (100×) | ~12K traversals/s | 83 µs/traversal | | **Graph** | PageRank (1K nodes, 5K edges) | ~450 graphs/s | 2.2 ms/graph | Run benchmarks yourself: ```bash nim c -d:ssl -d:release -r benchmarks/bench_all.nim ``` ## Docker Deployment ### Quick Start with Docker ```bash docker build -t baradb . docker run -p 5432:5432 -p 8080:8080 -p 8081:8081 -v baradb_data:/data baradb ``` ### Docker Compose ```bash docker-compose up -d ``` ### Environment Variables | Variable | Default | Description | |----------|---------|-------------| | `BARADB_PORT` | `5432` | TCP binary protocol port | | `BARADB_HTTP_PORT` | `8080` | HTTP/REST API port | | `BARADB_WS_PORT` | `8081` | WebSocket port | | `BARADB_DATA_DIR` | `./data` | Data directory | | `BARADB_TLS_ENABLED` | `false` | Enable TLS | | `BARADB_CERT_FILE` | — | TLS certificate path | | `BARADB_KEY_FILE` | — | TLS private key path | ## Client SDKs BaraDB provides official clients for multiple languages: ### JavaScript/TypeScript ```bash npm install baradb ``` ```javascript import { Client } from 'baradb'; const client = new Client('localhost', 5432); await client.connect(); const result = await client.query("SELECT name FROM users WHERE age > 18"); console.log(result.rows); await client.close(); ``` ### Python ```bash pip install baradb ``` ```python from baradb import Client client = Client("localhost", 5432) client.connect() result = client.query("SELECT name FROM users WHERE age > 18") print(result.rows) client.close() ``` ### Nim (Embedded) ```nim import barabadb var db = newLSMTree("./data") db.put("key", cast[seq[byte]]("value")) let (found, val) = db.get("key") db.close() ``` ### Rust ```toml [dependencies] baradb = "0.1" ``` ```rust use baradb::Client; let mut client = Client::connect("localhost:5432").await?; let result = client.query("SELECT name FROM users").await?; ``` ## Security ### TLS/SSL BaraDB supports TLS out of the box. If no certificate is provided, it auto-generates a self-signed one on startup: ```bash # With custom certificates BARADB_TLS_ENABLED=true \ BARADB_CERT_FILE=/etc/baradb/server.crt \ BARADB_KEY_FILE=/etc/baradb/server.key \ ./build/baradadb ``` ### Authentication JWT-based authentication with role-based access control: ```nim import barabadb/protocol/auth var am = newAuthManager("secret-key") let token = am.createToken(JWTClaims(sub: "user1", role: "admin")) let result = am.validateCredentials(...) ``` ### Rate Limiting Token-bucket rate limiting per client and globally: ```nim var rl = newRateLimiter(rlaTokenBucket, globalRate = 10000, perClientRate = 1000) ``` ## Configuration BaraDB can be configured via environment variables or a config file: ```bash # Environment variables export BARADB_PORT=5432 export BARADB_HTTP_PORT=8080 export BARADB_DATA_DIR=/var/lib/baradb export BARADB_LOG_LEVEL=info export BARADB_COMPACTION_INTERVAL=60000 # Or create baradb.conf port = 5432 http_port = 8080 data_dir = "/var/lib/baradb" log_level = "info" compaction_interval_ms = 60000 ``` ## Monitoring & Observability ### Built-in Metrics BaraDB exposes operational metrics via the HTTP API: ```bash curl http://localhost:8080/metrics ``` Example response: ```json { "queries_total": 152340, "queries_per_second": 1240, "storage_lsm_size_bytes": 2147483648, "storage_sstables": 12, "cache_hit_rate": 0.94, "active_connections": 42, "txns_active": 7, "txns_committed": 89123, "txns_rolled_back": 12 } ``` ### Health Check ```bash curl http://localhost:8080/health ``` ### Logging Structured logging with configurable levels (`debug`, `info`, `warn`, `error`): ```bash BARADB_LOG_LEVEL=debug ./build/baradadb ``` ## Backup & Recovery BaraDB includes a built-in backup manager that creates compressed tar.gz snapshots of your data directory. The manager supports online backups (server does not need to stop), integrity verification, retention policies, and safe restore with automatic rollback protection. ### Quick Reference | Command | Purpose | |---------|---------| | `backup backup` | Create a new snapshot | | `backup restore` | Restore data from a snapshot | | `backup list` | Show all snapshots | | `backup verify` | Check archive integrity | | `backup cleanup` | Delete old snapshots | | `backup help` | Show full help text | ### Build the Backup Tool ```bash nim c -o:build/backup src/barabadb/core/backup.nim ``` ### Creating Backups **Basic backup** — creates `backup_.tar.gz` in the current directory: ```bash ./build/backup backup ``` **Custom output path**: ```bash ./build/backup backup --output=/backups/prod_$(date +%F).tar.gz ``` **Maximum compression** (slower, smaller file): ```bash ./build/backup backup --level=9 ``` **Exclude WAL logs and temporary files**: ```bash ./build/backup backup \ --exclude="*.log" \ --exclude="wal/*" \ --exclude="tmp/*" ``` **Verbose output** (shows tar command and progress): ```bash ./build/backup backup --verbose ``` ### Listing Backups ```bash ./build/backup list ``` Example output: ``` Found 3 backup(s): -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- # Timestamp Size Path -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 2026-05-06 23:04:56 12.45 MB backup_1715011200.tar.gz 2 2026-05-05 12:30:00 11.20 MB backup_1714921800.tar.gz 3 2026-05-04 08:15:22 10.89 MB backup_1714834522.tar.gz -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ``` ### Verifying Backups Always verify a snapshot before restoring, especially after transferring it over the network: ```bash ./build/backup verify --input=backup_1715011200.tar.gz ``` A valid archive prints: ``` Archive is valid: backup_1715011200.tar.gz (12.45 MB) ``` A corrupted archive prints an error and exits with code 1. ### Restoring from Backup > ⚠️ **WARNING:** Restore replaces the existing data directory. The old data > is automatically moved to `data/server.old_` before extraction. ```bash ./build/backup restore --input=backup_1715011200.tar.gz ``` You will be prompted for confirmation: ``` WARNING: This will REPLACE the data in: data/server Continue? [y/N] ``` **Restore to a different data directory**: ```bash ./build/backup restore --input=backup.tar.gz --data-dir=data/recovered ``` **Skip confirmation (scripting)** — pipe `y`: ```bash echo "y" | ./build/backup restore --input=backup.tar.gz ``` ### Cleanup & Retention Delete old snapshots automatically, keeping only the N most recent: ```bash # Keep last 5 snapshots (default) ./build/backup cleanup # Keep last 3 snapshots ./build/backup cleanup --keep=3 # Verbose — shows which files are deleted ./build/backup cleanup --keep=3 --verbose ``` ### Full Option Reference | Option | Short | Default | Description | |--------|-------|---------|-------------| | `--data-dir` | `-d` | `data/server` | Path to the data directory | | `--output` | `-o` | auto-generated | Destination path for new backup | | `--input` | `-i` | — | Source archive for restore/verify | | `--keep` | `-k` | `5` | Number of snapshots to retain | | `--exclude` | `-e` | — | Exclude pattern (repeatable) | | `--level` | `-l` | `6` | Gzip compression 0-9 | | `--verbose` | `-v` | off | Detailed progress output | | `--help` | `-h` | — | Show help text | ### Nim API You can also use the backup module programmatically: ```nim import barabadb/core/backup # Create a snapshot let ok = backupDataDir("data/server", "snapshot.tar.gz") if not ok: echo "Backup failed" # List existing snapshots let backups = listBackups("data/server") for b in backups: echo b.path, " → ", formatBytes(b.size) # Verify without extracting let valid = verifyArchive("snapshot.tar.gz") # Restore (destructive!) let restored = restoreDataDir("snapshot.tar.gz", "data/server") # Cleanup retention cleanupOldBackups("data/server", keepLast = 5) ``` ### Point-in-Time Recovery (WAL) For fine-grained recovery, replay the WAL from a checkpoint: ```bash ./build/baradadb --recover --wal-dir=./wal --checkpoint=/backup/snapshot.tar.gz ``` ### Cross-Modal Queries One of BaraDB's unique strengths is querying across storage engines in a single BaraQL statement: ```sql -- Find articles about "machine learning" similar to a vector SELECT a.title, a.score FROM articles a WHERE MATCH(a.body) AGAINST('machine learning') ORDER BY cosine_distance(a.embedding, [0.1, 0.2, ...]) LIMIT 10; -- Graph + vector: find friends with similar taste MATCH (u:User)-[:KNOWS]->(friend:User) WHERE u.name = 'Alice' ORDER BY cosine_distance(friend.taste_vector, u.taste_vector) RETURN friend.name; -- Full-text + aggregate: top departments by article count SELECT department, count(*) as articles FROM docs WHERE MATCH(content) AGAINST('Nim programming') GROUP BY department ORDER BY articles DESC; ``` ## Troubleshooting ### Port Already in Use ``` Error: unhandled exception: Address already in use ``` **Fix:** Change the port or kill the existing process: ```bash BARADB_PORT=5433 ./build/baradadb # or lsof -ti:5432 | xargs kill -9 ``` ### SSL Compilation Error ``` Error: BaraDB requires SSL support. Compile with -d:ssl ``` **Fix:** Always compile with `-d:ssl`: ```bash nim c -d:ssl -d:release -o:build/baradadb src/baradadb.nim ``` ### Permission Denied on Data Directory **Fix:** Ensure the data directory exists and is writable: ```bash mkdir -p ./data && chmod 755 ./data ``` ### High Memory Usage **Fix:** Tune the MemTable size and page cache: ```bash export BARADB_MEMTABLE_SIZE_MB=64 export BARADB_CACHE_SIZE_MB=256 ``` ##
