Inventory Management System With Berkeley DB

This document describes an inventory management system that uses Berkeley DB as its underlying data storage. It provides concise summaries of key points: 1) Berkeley DB is an embedded open source database library that provides scalable and high-performance transactional data management services via a simple API. 2) Berkeley DB uses an in-process function call interface, requiring no inter-process communication, unlike SQL-based RDBMS which require parsing and execution planning. 3) The inventory management system uses the small 2MB Berkeley DB library versus a large multi-GB RDBMS application.

Inventory Management System

With Berkeley DB

1
What is Berkeley DB?

Berkeley DB is an Open Source embedded


database library that provides scalable, high-
performance, transaction-protected data
management services to applications. Berkeley
DB provides a simple function-call API for data
access and management.

Berkeley DB vs RDBMS

Function-call interface vs SQL Statement


Because the library runs in the same address
space, no inter-process communication is required
for database operations.
Berkeley DB uses a simple function-call interface
for all operations, there is no query language to
parse, and no execution plan to produce.
