Cyoda Documentation
EDBMS — Entity Database Management System
One transactional runtime for the entity lifecycle.
Section titled “One transactional runtime for the entity lifecycle.”Cyoda is an EDBMS: state machine, processors, and full revision history live inside the record, committed atomically — minimizing the need for sagas. A simpler stack than Postgres + Temporal + Kafka + a CDC audit pipeline. Build complete event-driven backends on one runtime. Open source, single Go binary, Postgres-backed.
Get started Learn the conceptsFour storage engines. One application contract.
Section titled “Four storage engines. One application contract.”Three open-source engines ship with cyoda-go — in-memory, SQLite, and PostgreSQL — each tuned to a different operational shape. A commercial Cassandra plugin extends the same application code to fully scalable, robust production workloads.
