Welcome to Wildcat

Wildcat is a high-performance storage engine written in Go with C interoperability. Built on LSM tree architecture with MVCC transaction control and lock-free data structures, Wildcat delivers fast read/write performance while maintaining immediate consistency and durability guarantees.

What makes Wildcat different?

  • Lock-free concurrency that scales with available CPU cores
  • Background operations for flushing and compaction to eliminate LSM tree bottlenecks
  • ACID-compliant isolation with timestamp based consistency
  • Embedded design with C bindings for cross-language integration
