TerrabaseDB (or TDB for short) is an effort to provide the best of key/value stores, document stores and columnar databases, that is, **simplicity, flexibility and queryability at scale**. TDB is curently in an alpha stage, but can be used as a **performant**, **secure** and **persistent key-value store**.
Skybase (or SkybaseDB/SDB) is an effort to provide the best of key/value stores, document stores and columnar databases, that is, **simplicity, flexibility and queryability at scale**. The name 'Skybase' exemplifies our vision to create a database that has limitless possibilities. Skybase was previously known as TerrabaseDB.

2. Unzip the bundle
3. Make the files executable (run `chmod +x tdb tsh` on *nix systems)
4. First run `tdb` to start the database server and then run `tsh` to start the interactive shell
5. Run commands like: `SET foo bar` , `GET bar` , `UPDATE cat mitten` or `DEL proprietary` 🤪 on `tsh` !

* **Snapshots**: Automated (and tunable) snapshots for stress-free backups
* **Secure**: Secure connections are built into TDB with SSL/TLS
