BarrelDB is a Golang implementation of Bitcask by Riak paper and aims to closely follow the spec. Bitcask is based on a log-structured hash table to store key-value data on disk. It opens a "datafile" (term used for a Bitcask DB file) in an append-only mode and all the writes are sequentially written to this file. Additionally, it also updates an in-memory hash table which maps the key with the offset of the record in the file. This clever yet simple design decision makes it possible to retrieve records from the disk using a single disk seek.
