Inspiration
Learn more about high performance data handling
How we built it
First, we tried SQLite in memory, which was a performance-wise disaster. At 2 AM on Sunday, we tossed it all in the trash and started again from scratch with plain C++, which proved to be the better choice.
Challenges we ran into
- Quickly gain knowledge on the handling of large datasets
- Correctly implement the specified API
Accomplishments that we're proud of
Managed to build a server that passed the basic tests within two hours at 2AM
What we learned
SQL databases are slower than expected
