LonaDB is a document-oriented (JSON) DBMS written in PHP.
History
The system's source code repository has not been updated since 2025 and is now considered abandoned.
Indexes
The DBMS relies on PHP's built-in associate arrays to find a record based on its primary key.
Logging[05]
LonaDB maintains a single encrypted data file per table. After updating a record, the DBMS writes the entire table file to disk. It does not support write-ahead logging or other safety mechanisms to prevent torn writes.
