Partitioning
There are no special requirements on partitioning. Nodes can be independent servers or virtualized (i.e Docker). The only recommendation we provide is to leave 10% disk space available for our data operations inside the disk.Indexing
There are no special requirements for indexing as everything is executed on the UNIX file system as a text file.Concurrency
Unicage is based on UNIX fundamentals where multithreading, concurrent and exclusive processes are allowed. Our suite of commands contains blocking commands as well as atomic writing.
