KV.JS is a fast, in-memory data store written in pure JavaScript, heavily inspired by Redis and Memcached. It is capable of handling multiple data types, including strings, lists, sets, sorted sets, hashes, and geospatial indexes. Additionally, with more than 140 functions, KV.JS supports a vast variety of operations, ranging from SET
, GET
, EXPIRE
, DEL
to INCR
, DECR
, LPUSH
, RPUSH
, SADD
, SREM
, HSET
, HGET
, and many many more.
