GoBolt - A Redis-like In-Memory Database

GoBolt is a lightweight, Redis-like in-memory key-value store built with Go. It supports RESP protocol parsing, in-memory storage, and Append-Only File (AOF) persistence to ensure durability.

Features

GoBolt implements several core Redis features:

✅ In-Memory Storage - Stores key-value pairs in memory for fast access.
✅ RESP Protocol Support - Parses Redis Serialization Protocol (RESP) requests for communication.
✅ String Commands - Supports basic Redis commands like SET, GET, DEL, etc.
✅ Append-Only File (AOF) - Persists commands to disk to ensure durability.
✅ TCP Server - Handles multiple client connections.
✅ Concurrency Handling - Uses Go's goroutines for efficient request processing.

Architecture Overview

Below is a high-level overview of how GoBolt works:

Client -> TCP Server -> RESP Parser -> Command Execution -> Data Store -> AOF Persistence
