OrbitDB uses IPFS as its data storage and Libp2p Pubsub to automatically sync databases with peers. It's an eventually consistent database that uses Merkle-CRDTs for conflict-free database writes and merges making OrbitDB an excellent choice for p2p and decentralized apps, blockchain applications and local-first web applications. OrbitDB provides various types of databases for different data models and use cases: - events : an immutable (append-only) log with traversable history. Useful for \"latest N\" use cases or as a message queue. - documents : a document database to which JSON documents can be stored and indexed by a specified key. Useful for building search indices or version controlling documents and data. - keyvalue : a key-value database just like your favourite key-value database. - keyvalue-indexed : key-value data indexed in a Level key-value database. All databases are implemented on top of OrbitDB's OpLog, an immutable, cryptographically verifiable, operation-based conflict-free replicated data structure (CRDT) for distributed systems. OpLog is formalized in the paper Merkle-CRDTs. You can also easily extend OrbitDB by implementing and using a custom data model benefitting from the same properties as the default data models provided by the underlying Merkle-CRDTs. This is the Javascript implementation and it works both in Browsers and Node.js with support for Linux, OS X, and Windows.
