So it's a Redis API written in Rust, but the underlying database is all C++. It seems like a nice project, but perhaps a little misleading to say it's written in Rust.

If anyone is interested in a Rust-based on-disk KV store, I've come across sled[0] a few times, seems interesting. The author's also built a lot of other cool concurrency primitives for Rust as well.

The storage itself uses the rust binding for RocksDb

However, I did have a branch (in another repo) that uses other different storage, some are purely written in Rust, like "dash" (which is full in-memory), "sled" and "speedb". I eventually decided to stick with RocksDb since its well mature and maintained by some giant companies like Meta.

The user code (the one I wrote) is all Rust.

Also, one could also argue that the `bytes` crate that is heavily utilized in the code base of SableDb, uses plenty of `unsafe` code, does this make it less "Rust" ?
