SirixDB appends data to an indexed log file without the need of a WAL. It can be embedded and used as a library from your favorite language on the JVM to store and query data locally or by using a simple CLI. An asynchronous HTTP server, which adds the core and query modules as dependencies, can interact with SirixDB over the network using Keycloak for authentication/authorization. One file stores the data with all revisions and possibly secondary indexes. A second file stores offsets into the file to quickly search for a revision by a given timestamp using an in-memory binary search. Furthermore, a few maintenance files exist, which store the configuration of a resource and the definitions of secondary indexes (if any are configured). Other JSON files keep track of changes in delta files if enabled.
It currently supports the storage and (time travel) querying of XML and JSON data in its binary encoding, tailored to support versioning. The index structures and the whole storage engine has been written from scratch to support versioning natively. We might also implement storing and querying other data formats as relational data.
SirixDB uses a huge persistent (in the functional sense) tree of tries, wherein the committed snapshots share unchanged pages and even common records in changed pages. The system only stores page fragments during a copy-on-write out-of-place operation instead of full pages during a commit to reduce write-amplification. During read operations, the system reads the page fragments in parallel to reconstruct an in-memory page (thus, a fast, random access storage device as a PCIe SSD is best suited or even byte-addressable storage as Intel DC optane memory shortly -- as SirixDB stores fine granular cache-size (not page) aligned modifications in a single file.

We could write a lot about why keeping all states of your data in a storage system is of great value. In a nutshell, it's all about looking at the evolution of your data, finding trends, doing audits, and implementing efficient undo-/redo-operations. The Wikipedia page has a bunch of examples. We recently also added use cases over here.
Our firm belief is that a temporal storage system must address the issues which arise from keeping past states way better than traditional approaches. Usually, storing time-varying, temporal data in database systems that do not support the storage thereof natively results in many unwanted hurdles. They waste storage space, query performance to retrieve past states of your data is not most ideal, and usually, temporal operations are missing altogether.
The DBS must store data so that storage space is used as effectively as possible while supporting the reconstruction of each revision, as the database saw it during the commits. All this should be handled in linear time, whether it's the first revision or the most recent revision. Ideally, the query time of old/past revisions and the most recent revision should be in the same runtime complexity (logarithmic when querying for specific records).
SirixDB not only supports snapshot-based versioning on a record granular level through a novel versioning algorithm called sliding snapshot, but also time travel queries, efficient diffing between revisions, and storing semi-structured data.
Executing the following time-travel query on our binary JSON representation of Twitter sample data gives an initial impression of the possibilities:
let $statuses := jn:open('mycol.jn','mydoc.jn', xs:dateTime('2019-04-13T16:24:27Z')).statuses
let $foundStatus := for $status in $statuses
let $dateTimeCreated := xs:dateTime($status.created_at)
where $dateTimeCreated > xs:dateTime("2018-02-01T00:00:00") and not(exists(jn:previous($status)))
order by $dateTimeCreated
return $status
return {"revision": sdb:revision($foundStatus), $foundStatus{text}}The query opens a database/resource in a specific revision based on a timestamp (2019–04–13T16:24:27Z) and searches for all statuses, which have a created_at timestamp, which has to be greater than the 1st of February in 2018 and did not exist in the previous revision. . is a dereferencing operator used to dereference keys in JSON objects, array values can be accessed as shown looping over the values or through specifying an index, starting with zero: array[0] for instance, specifies the first value of the array. Brackit, our query processor, also supports Python-like array slices to simplify tasks.
To verify changes in a node or its subtree, first, select the node in the revision and then
query for changes using our stored Merkle hash tree, which builds and updates hashes for each node and its subtree and checks the hashes with sdb:hash($item). The function jn:all-times delivers the node in all revisions in which it exists. jn:previous delivers
the node in the previous revision or an empty sequence if there's none.
let $node := jn:doc('mycol.jn','mydoc.jn').fieldName[1]
let $result := for $node-in-rev in jn:all-times($node)
let $nodeInPreviousRevision := jn:previous($node-in-rev)
return
if ((not(exists($nodeInPreviousRevision)))
or (sdb:hash($node-in-rev) ne sdb:hash($nodeInPreviousRevision))) then
$node-in-rev
else
()
return [
for $jsonItem in $result
return { "node": $jsonItem, "revision": sdb:revision($jsonItem) }
]Emit all diffs between the revisions in a JSON format:
let $maxRevision := sdb:revision(jn:doc('mycol.jn','mydoc.jn'))
let $result := for $i in (1 to $maxRevision)
return
if ($i > 1) then
jn:diff('mycol.jn','mydoc.jn',$i - 1, $i)
else
()
return [
for $diff at $pos in $result
return {"diffRev" || $pos || "toRev" || $pos + 1: jn:parse($diff).diffs}
]We support easy updates as in
let $array := jn:doc('mycol.jn','mydoc.jn')
return insert json {"bla":true} into $array at position 0to insert a JSON object into a resource, whereas the root node is an array at the first position (0). The transaction is implicitly committed. Thus, a new revision is created, and the specific revision can be queried using a single third argument, either a simple integer ID or a timestamp. The following query issues a query on the first revision (thus without the changes).
jn:doc('mycol.jn','mydoc.jn',1)Omitting the third argument opens the resource in the most recent revision, but you could, in this case, also specify revision number 2. You can also use a timestamp as in:
jn:open('mycol.jn','mydoc.jn',xs:dateTime('2022-03-01T00:00:00Z'))A simple join (whereas joins are optimized in our query processor called Brackit):
(* first: store stores in a stores resource *)
sdb:store('mycol.jn','stores','
[
{ "store number" : 1, "state" : "MA" },
{ "store number" : 2, "state" : "MA" },
{ "store number" : 3, "state" : "CA" },
{ "store number" : 4, "state" : "CA" }
]')
(* second: store sales in a sales resource *)
sdb:store('mycol.jn','sales','
[
{ "product" : "broiler", "store number" : 1, "quantity" : 20 },
{ "product" : "toaster", "store number" : 2, "quantity" : 100 },
{ "product" : "toaster", "store number" : 2, "quantity" : 50 },
{ "product" : "toaster", "store number" : 3, "quantity" : 50 },
{ "product" : "blender", "store number" : 3, "quantity" : 100 },
{ "product" : "blender", "store number" : 3, "quantity" : 150 },
{ "product" : "socks", "store number" : 1, "quantity" : 500 },
{ "product" : "socks", "store number" : 2, "quantity" : 10 },
{ "product" : "shirt", "store number" : 3, "quantity" : 10 }
]')
let $stores := jn:doc('mycol.jn','stores')
let $sales := jn:doc('mycol.jn','sales')
let $join :=
for $store in $stores, $sale in $sales
where $store."store number" = $sale."store number"
return {
"nb" : $store."store number",
"state" : $store.state,
"sold" : $sale.product
}
return [$join]SirixDB through Brackit also supports array slices. The start index is 0, the step is 1, and end index is 1 (exclusive) in the next query:
let $array := [{"foo": 0}, "bar", {"baz": true}]
return $array[0:1:1]The query returns the first object {"foo":0}.
With the function sdb:nodekey you can find out the internal unique node key of a node, which will never change. You for instance might be interested in which revision it has been removed. The following query uses the function sdb:select-item which, as the first argument needs a context node and, as the second argument the key of the item or node to select. jn:last-existing finds the most recent version and sdb:revision retrieves the revision number.
sdb:revision(jn:last-existing(sdb:select-item(jn:doc('mycol.jn','mydoc.jn',1), 26)))SirixDB has three types of indexes along with a path summary tree, which is basically a tree of all distinct paths:
- name indexes, to index a set of object fields
- path indexes, to index a set of paths (or all paths in a resource)
- CAS indexes, so-called content-and-structure indexes, which index paths and typed values (for instance, all xs:integers). In this case, on the paths specified, only integer values are indexed on the path, but no other types
We base the indexes on the following serialization of three revisions of a very small SirixDB resource.
{
"sirix": [
{
"revisionNumber": 1,
"revision": {

}let $doc := jn:doc('mycol.jn','mydoc.jn')
let $stats := jn:create-name-index($doc, ('foo','bar'))
return {"revision": sdb:commit($doc)}The index is created for "foo" and "bar" object fields. You can query for "foo" fields as for instance:
let $doc := jn:doc('mycol.jn','mydoc.jn')
let $nameIndexNumber := jn:find-name-index($doc, 'foo')
for $node in jn:scan-name-index($doc, $nameIndexNumber, 'foo')
order by sdb:revision($node), sdb:nodekey($node)
return {"nodeKey": sdb:nodekey($node), "path": sdb:path($node), "revision": sdb:revision($node)}Second, whole paths are indexable.
Thus, the following path index is applicable to both queries: .sirix[].revision.tada[].foo and .sirix[].revision.tada[][4].foo. Thus, essentially both foo nodes are indexed and the first child has to be fetched afterwards. For the second query also the array index 4 has to be checked if the indexed node is really on index 4.
let $doc := jn:doc('mycol.jn','mydoc.jn')
let $stats := jn:create-path-index($doc, '/sirix/[]/revision/tada//[]/foo')
return {"revision": sdb:commit($doc)}The index might be scanned as follows:
let $doc := jn:doc('mycol.jn','mydoc.jn')
let $pathIndexNumber := jn:find-path-index($doc, '/sirix/[]/revision/tada//[]/foo')
for $node in jn:scan-path-index($doc, $pathIndexNumber, '/sirix/[]/revision/tada//[]/foo')
order by sdb:revision($node), sdb:nodekey($node)
return {"nodeKey": sdb:nodekey($node), "path": sdb:path($node)}CAS indexes index a path plus the value. The value itself must be typed (so in this case we index only decimals on a path).
let $doc := jn:doc('mycol.jn','mydoc.jn')
let $stats := jn:create-cas-index($doc, 'xs:decimal', '/sirix/[]/revision/foo/[]')
return {"revision": sdb:commit($doc)}We can do an index range-scan as for instance via the next query (2.33 and 100 are the min and max, the next two arguments are two booleans which denote if the min and max should be retrieved or if it's >min and <max). The last argument is usually a path if we index more paths in the same index (in this case we only index /sirix/[]/revision/foo/[]).
let $doc := jn:doc('mycol.jn','mydoc.jn')
let $casIndexNumber := jn:find-cas-index($doc, 'xs:decimal', '/sirix/[]/revision/foo/[]')
for $node in jn:scan-cas-index-range($doc, $casIndexNumber, 2.33, 100, false(), true(), ())
order by sdb:revision($node), sdb:nodekey($node)
return {"nodeKey": sdb:nodekey($node), "node": $node}You can also create a CAS index on all string values on all paths (all object fields: //*; all arrays: //[]):
let $doc := jn:doc('mycol.jn','mydoc.jn')
let $stats := jn:create-cas-index($doc,'xs:string',('//*','//[]'))
return {"revision": sdb:commit($doc)}To query for string values with a certain name (bar) on all paths (empty sequence ()):
let $doc := jn:doc('mycol.jn','mydoc.jn')
let $casIndexNumber := jn:find-cas-index($doc, 'xs:string', '//*')
for $node in jn:scan-cas-index($doc, $casIndexNumber, 'bar', '==', ())
order by sdb:revision($node), sdb:nodekey($node)
return {"nodeKey": sdb:nodekey($node), "node": $node, "path": sdb:path(sdb:select-parent($node))}The argument == means check for equality of the string. Other values that make more sense for integers, and decimals... are <, <=, >= and >.
SirixDB is a log-structured, temporal JSON and XML database system, which stores evolutionary data. It never overwrites any data on disk. Thus, we're able to restore and query the full revision history of a resource in the database.
Some of the most important core principles and design goals are:
- Embeddable
- Similar to SQLite and DucksDB, SirixDB is embeddable at its core. Other APIs as the non-blocking REST API are built on top.
- Minimize Storage Overhead
- SirixDB shares unchanged data pages as well as records between revisions, depending on a chosen versioning algorithm during the initial bootstrapping of a resource. SirixDB aims to balance read and writer performance in its default configuration.
- Concurrent
- SirixDB contains very few locks and aims to be as suitable for multithreaded systems as possible.
- Asynchronous
- Operations can happen independently; each transaction is bound to a specific revision and only one read/write transaction on a resource is permitted concurrently with N read-only transactions.
- Versioning/Revision history
- SirixDB stores a revision history of every resource in the database without imposing extra overhead. It uses a huge persistent, durable page tree for indexing revisions and data.
- Data integrity
- SirixDB, like ZFS, stores full checksums of the pages in the parent pages. That means that almost all data corruption can be detected upon reading in the future; we aim to partition and replicate databases in the future.
- Copy-on-write semantics
- Similarly to the file systems Btrfs and ZFS, SirixDB uses CoW semantics, meaning that SirixDB never overwrites data. Instead, database-page fragments are copied/written to a new location. SirixDB does not simply copy whole pages. Instead, it only copies changed records plus records, which fall out of a sliding window.
- Per revision and page versioning
- SirixDB does not only version on a per revision but also on a per page base. Thus, whenever we change a potentially small fraction of records in a data page, it does not have to copy the whole page and write it to a new location on a disk or flash drive. Instead, we can specify one of several versioning strategies known from backup systems or a novel sliding snapshot algorithm during the creation of a database resource. The versioning type we specify is used by SirixDB to version data pages.
- Guaranteed atomicity and consistency (without a WAL)
- The system will never enter an inconsistent state (unless there is hardware failure), meaning that unexpected power-off won't ever damage the system. This is accomplished without the overhead of a write-ahead log. (WAL)
- Log-structured and SSD friendly
- SirixDB batches writes and syncs everything sequentially to a flash drive during commits. It never overwrites committed data.
Keeping the revision history is one of the main features in SirixDB. You can revert any revision to an earlier version or back up the system automatically without the overhead of copying. SirixDB only ever copies changed database pages and, depending on the versioning algorithm you chose during the creation of a database/resource, only page fragments, and ancestor index pages to create a new revision.
You can reconstruct every revision in O(n), where n denotes the number of nodes in the revision. Binary search is used on an in-memory (linked) map to load the revision, thus finding the revision root page has an asymptotic runtime complexity of O(log n), where n, in this case, is the number of stored revisions.
Currently, SirixDB offers two built-in native data models, namely a binary XML store and a JSON store.

SirixDB as of now has not been tested in production. It is recommended for experiments, testing, benchmarking, etc., but is not recommended for production usage. Let us know if you'd like to use SirixDB in production and get in touch. We'd like to test real-world datasets and fix issues we encounter along the way.
Please also get in touch if you like our vision, and you want to sponsor us or help with man-power or if you want to use SirixDB as a research system. We'd be glad to get input from the database and scientific community.
Download ZIP or Git Clone
git clone https://github.com/sirixdb/sirix.git
or use the following dependencies in your Maven or Gradle project.
SirixDB uses Java 21, thus you need an up-to-date Gradle (if you want to work on SirixDB) and an IDE (for instance IntelliJ or Eclipse). Also make sure to use the provided Gradle wrapper.
At this stage of development, you should use the latest SNAPSHOT artifacts from the OSS snapshot repository to get the most recent changes.
Just add the following repository section to your POM or build.gradle file:

--add-opens=java.base/java.io=ALL-UNNAMED
--add-opens=java.base/java.util=ALL-UNNAMED
Plus we recommend using the Shenandoah GC or ZGC (if possible in the future the generational versions):
-XX:+UseZGC
-Xlog:gc
-XX:+AlwaysPreTouch
-XX:+UseLargePages
-XX:-UseBiasedLocking
-XX:+DisableExplicitGC
We've also had perfect results using GraalVM, possibly due to its JIT compiler and the improved escape analysis.
The REST-API is asynchronous at its very core. We use Vert.x, which is a toolkit built on top of Netty. It is heavily inspired by Node.js but for the JVM. As such, it uses event loop(s), which is thread(s), which never should by blocked by long-running CPU tasks or disk-bound I/O. We are using Kotlin with coroutines to keep the code simple. SirixDB uses OAuth2 (Password Credentials/Resource Owner Flow) using a Keycloak authorization server instance.
You can set up Keycloak as described in this excellent tutorial. Our docker-compose file imports a sirix realm with a default admin user with all available roles assigned. You can skip steps 3 - 7 and 10, 11, and simply recreate a client-secret and change oAuthFlowType to "PASSWORD". If you want to run or modify the integration tests, the client secret must not be changed. Make sure to delete the line "build: ." in the docker-compse.yml file for the server image if you want to use the Docker Hub image.
- Open your browser. URL: http://localhost:8080
- Login with username "admin" and password "admin"
- Create a new realm with the name "sirixdb"
- Go to
Clients=>account - Change client-id to "sirix"
- Make sure
access-typeis set toconfidential - Go to the
Credentialstab - Put the
client secretinto the SirixDB HTTP-Server configuration file. Change the value of "client.secret" to whatever Keycloak set up. - If "oAuthFlowType" is specified in the same configuration file change the value to "PASSWORD" (if not default is "PASSWORD").
- Regarding Keycloak the
direct accessgrant on the settings tab must beenabled. - Our (user-/group-)roles are "create" to allow creating databases/resources, "view" to allow to query database resources, "modify" to modify a database resource and "delete" to allow deletion thereof. You can also assign
${databaseName}-prefixed roles.
For setting up the SirixDB HTTP-Server and a basic Keycloak-instance with a test realm:
git clone https://github.com/sirixdb/sirix.gitsudo docker-compose up keycloak
This section describes setting up the Keycloak using docker compose. If you are looking for configuring keycloak from scratch, instructions for that is described in the previous section
For setting up the SirixDB HTTP-Server and a basic Keycloak-instance with a test sirixdb realm:
-
At first clone this repository with the following command (Or download .zip)
git clone https://github.com/sirixdb/sirix.git -
cdinto the sirix folder that was just cloned.cd sirix/ -
Run the Keycloak container using
docker composesudo docker compose up keycloak -
Visit
http://localhost:8080and login to the admin console using username:adminand password:admin -
From the navigation panel on the left, select
Realm Settingsand verify that theNamefield is set tosirixdb -
Select the client with Client ID
sirix- Verify direct access grant is enabled.
- Verify that
Access Typeis set toconfidential - In the

Finally run the SirixDB-HTTP Server and Keycloak container with docker compose
docker compose up
To created a fat-JAR. Download our ZIP-file for instance, then
cd bundles/sirix-rest-api./gradlew build -x test
And a fat-JAR with all required dependencies should have been created in your target folder.
Furthermore, a key.pem and a cert.pem file are needed. These two files have to be in your user home directory in a directory called "sirix-data", where Sirix stores the databases. For demo purposes, they can be copied from our resources directory.
Once also Keycloak is set up we can start the server via:
java -jar -Duser.home=/opt/sirix sirix-rest-api-*-SNAPSHOT-fat.jar -conf sirix-conf.json -cp /opt/sirix/*
If you like to change your user home directory to /opt/sirix for instance.
The fat-JAR in the future will be downloadable from the maven repository.
In order to run the integration tests under bundles/sirix-rest-api/src/test/kotlin make sure that you assign your admin user all the user roles you have created in the Keycloak setup (last step). Make sure that Keycloak is running first and execute the tests in your favorite IDE for instance.
Note that the following VM parameters currently are needed: -ea --add-modules=jdk.incubator.foreign --enable-preview
We ship a (very) simple command-line tool for the sirix-query bundle:
Get the latest sirix-xquery JAR with dependencies.
We are currently working on the documentation. You may find first drafts and snippets in the documentation and in this README. Furthermore, you are kindly invited to ask any question you might have (and you likely have many questions) in the community forum (preferred) or in the Discord channel. Please also have a look at and play with our sirix-example bundle which is available via Maven or our new asynchronous RESTful API (shown next).
If you have any questions or are considering contributing or using Sirix, please use the Community Forum to ask questions. Any kind of question, may it be an API question or enhancement proposal, questions regarding use cases are welcome... Don't hesitate to ask questions or make suggestions for improvements. At the moment also, API-related suggestions and critics are of utmost importance.
You may find us on Discord for quick questions.
SirixDB is maintained by
- Johannes Lichtenberger
And the Open Source Community.
As the project was forked from a university project called Treetank, my deepest gratitude to Marc Kramis, who came up with the idea of building a versioned, secure, and energy-efficient data store, which retains the history of resources of his Ph.D. Furthermore, Sebastian Graf came up with a lot of ideas and greatly improved the implementation of his Ph.D. Besides, a lot of students worked and improved the project considerably.
Thanks go to these wonderful people, who greatly improved SirixDB lately. SirixDB couldn't exist without the help of the Open Source community:
