Yeah, doesn’t look like it’s actively developed unfortunately. It is fully distributed though, from the docs:
ActorDB on the other hand allows you to start out with a database that is fully normalised within an actor unit and scale that database horizontally over as many servers as you need. No single points of failure or global locks. Transactions only affect the actors that participate in them.
i haven’t used orbitdb yet, so i’m not sure what state it is in exactly
but this depends on what your application for it is and what you’re trying to replace with it, just like ipfs itself can be pretty good for certain purposes, but still be lacking in certain things like dynamic websites or streaming
orbit db says hi :)
there’s also actorDB which I think is more mature
This looks pretty cool, but is it completely P2P like OrbitDB?
Also, it looks a little bit abandoned: last commit was in 2019
Yeah, doesn’t look like it’s actively developed unfortunately. It is fully distributed though, from the docs:
What I mean is that, OrbitDB seems to be open P2P (a network that anybody can connect to), while ActorDB seems to be private P2P
oh yeah ActorDB is a private P2P
actor db is literally abandoned though
oh THIS is awesome!
Is that production ready?
i’m not sure what concretely do you mean by that…
it’s still new, as ipfs iself is, but it’s already used by multiple applications to different degrees of success
That is, is it in a stage where it’s usable to some degree outside of testing

i would recommend asking on their gitter
Thanks :)
