I think what's nuts is that databases data structures are not built into the language/stdlibs. I can make an array but if I want to add an index so I can access it fast then I have to jump through some inordinate hoops. I can make an in memory hashmap, but if I want to persist it and keep accessing it fast directly from persistent storage suddenly things get unnecessarily complicated. I think fast searchable file backed data structures should be primitives of any computer language and runtime. |
