There is a parallel but less fancy reimplementation of Redis called Pedis:

https://github.com/fastio/1store

It's built using Seastar, which is sort of an ugh but cool unholy marriage of node.js and C++14 with an event loop per thread, and message passing between threads. It predates C++20 coroutines I guess, so you pass callbacks around like in Node using C++ lambdas. Maybe they have updated that by now.

They have also done a version of memcached using DPDK. I don't see a Pedis one, but check out their memcached one (scroll down): http://seastar.io/

That seems like a lot of work just to badly recreate Erlang. (Which, yes, doesn’t let you define your own native data structures in-and-of-itself — but there’s always NIFs, e.g. https://blog.discord.com/using-rust-to-scale-elixir-for-11-m....)

Wow that's a product name horribly prone to typo/auto-correct awkwardness.

At first I was like, “heh, parallel redis so pedis”…then I said it out loud and I was like….oh my

Cool! Thanks for sharing.
