Writing WiredTiger applications in Java

This section covers topics of interest for programmers writing WiredTiger applications in Java.

We follow SQL terminology: a database is set of tables managed together. Tables consist of rows, where each row is a key and its associated value. Tables may optionally have an associated schema, splitting the value into a set of columns. Tables may also have associated indices, each of which is ordered by one or more columns.

## Using the API

- Getting Started with the API in Java
- Configuration Strings in Java
- Cursors in Java
- Transactions in Java
- Error handling in Java

## Storage options

- Schema, Columns, Column Groups, Indices and Projections in Java
- Log-Structured Merge Trees in Java
- File formats and compression in Java
- Compressors in Java
- Encryptors in Java

## Programming notes

- Multithreading in Java
- Name spaces in Java
- Database read-only mode in Java

## Advanced topics

- Asynchronous operations in Java
- Backups in Java
- Compaction in Java
- Checkpoint durability in Java
- Commit-level durability in Java
- In-memory databases in Java
- Join cursors in Java
- Log cursors in Java
- Track function calls in Java
- Named Snapshots
- Rebalance in Java
- Per-process shared caches in Java
- Statistics in Java
