BPF-DB: A Kernel-Embedded Transactional Database Management System For eBPF Applications
Summary: BPF-DB: a kernel-embedded transactional DBMS for eBPF apps, offering durable storage and ACID-like guarantees in kernel space. Shows a Redis-compatible transactional storage engine and a serializable stored-procedure DBMS, achieving 43% higher throughput than VoltDB. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
