Thrudb - Documentation

A good place to start is our Technical Document

The wiki contains installation and configuration info. Please ask questions in our discussion group.

We haven't quite made it to a "release" yet so for now go ahead and grab the code with svn

We've begin an alternate implementation in java on github: http://github.com/tjake/thrudb/tree/master

See Thrudb in action on http://www.junkdepot.com, which is built with Thrudb as its data backend (no RDBMS) and is running on Amazon EC2 with virtually no chance of data loss (thanks to S3 storage backend).
