LightCloud is now open source

LightCloud is a distributed key-value database built on top of Tokyo Tyrant. And it's the first open source project from Plurk!

Some of the features include:

• Great performance (comparable to memcached!)
• Can store millions of keys on very few servers - tested in production
• Scale out by just adding nodes
• Nodes are replicated via master-master replication. Automatic failover and load balancing is supported from the start
• Ability to script and extend using Lua. Included extensions are incr and a fixed list
