FlatBuffers is a cross-platform serialization library designed for performance-critical applications that require efficient, zero-copy data access. By organizing data in a structured binary format, it allows applications to read and write complex data structures directly from memory-mapped buffers without the need for intermediate parsing or temporary object allocation. The project distinguishes itself through a schema-driven approach that balances high-performance access with long-term data evolution. It utilizes a unique memory layout featuring relative offsets and inline fixed-size structu
Stores primitive data types directly within parent structures to minimize memory overhead and maximize cache locality during access.
