I’m excited to share my beta progress developing AriaSQL—a relational database built in Go. It features a custom SQL parser, index structures, transaction mechanisms, recovery support, and more.
AriaSQL is an intriguing project that demonstrates a bold approach to building a relational database system entirely in Go. Based on my experience with custom parsers and transactional systems, I appreciate the challenges inherent in such an endeavor, especially when it comes to balancing concurrency with the robustness of transaction handling. Leveraging Go’s capabilities for efficient concurrency while ensuring atomicity and recovery can be difficult. Advancing through beta stages with focused community feedback can provide valuable insights for refining both performance and reliability.
