In this talk, Oren Eini, founder of RavenDB, is going to take apart a database engine on stage. We are going to inspect all the different pieces that make for an industrial-grade database engine, from the way the data is laid out on disk to how the database is ensuring that transactions are durable. We'll explore algorithms such as B+Tree, write-ahead logs, discuss concurrency strategies and how different features of the database work together to achieve the end goals.

From the very start, most of the RavenDB community communication was handled via the mailing list.

Some members of the community mentioned that this workflow is outdated and wanted to move to a more modern options. As a result, we opened up the GitHub Discussions board and we welcome the community there as well.

Ask your questions, interact and let us know what you are doing with RavenDB.
