RethinkDB is a distributed, document-oriented database designed to store and manage JSON-formatted data across scalable clusters. It utilizes a custom log-structured storage engine with B-Tree indexing to ensure high-performance disk I/O and data persistence. The system maintains high availability through automatic sharding and replication, employing a primary-replica voting consensus mechanism to handle node failures and ensure consistent cluster operations. A defining characteristic of the platform is its reactive changefeed engine, which allows applications to subscribe to live data update
RethinkDB allows configuring table sharding and replication settings through the web interface by specifying the desired number of shards and replicas for automatic cluster balancing.
