Feature List

  Access control for managing authentication, authorization between AvionDB (OrbitDB) peers.

• Secure Pub-Sub
  Out-of-the-box encryption over pub-sub for secure communication between AvionDB (OrbitDB) peers.

• Store (Collection) Sharding
  In some cases, when we store a lot of data within the same Collection, the performance (read/write/replicate) of AvionDB can become worse. A possible method to mitigate this could be sharing the Collections and managing the set of "shard" Collections to give a notion of a single Collection.

  A GUI dashboard like Mongo Compass for AvionDB. Existing Resources
