       tarantool_box - open-source NoSQL database

SYNOPSIS

	   tarantool_box [OPTIONS]

DESCRIPTION

       Tarantool is an open-source NoSQL database, developed by Mail.ru.

       Its key properties include:

       o   Licence: simplified BSD

       o   All data is maintained in RAM

       o   Data persistence is implemented using Write Ahead Log and snapshotting

       o   Supports asynchronous replication and hot standby

       o   Uses coroutines and asynchronous I/O to implement high-performance lock-free access to data

       o   Available on Linux and FreeBSD

       o   Stored procedures in Lua are supported.

   Data model
       The basic atom of storage in Tarantool is called tuple. A tuple can have arbitrary number of fields. The first field in the tuple is always
       the identifying unique key. Tuples form spaces. It is possible to search tuples in spaces using the primary or secondary keys. Fields in a
       tuple are type-agnostic. It is possible to change, as well as add or remove fields.
