Simple key-value storage for documents

Question

NoSQL

Who in what would advise to store documents (Word and other office files?)

What you need:

- the ability to give any document an arbitrary number of attributes and search for them.
- the ability to organize these documents in a hierarchy.
- I would like the ability to somehow compress documents on disk to save disk space, since there are a lot of them.

what is NOT required:
- clustering, sharding and other bells and whistles at this stage
- full-text search

Answer 1

Monga? I'm not sure about compression, you can try to zip documents and store them as binary data.

Answer 2

I would advise a regular SQL server (sqlite as an option) a couple of tables (for documents and attributes) and store the documents themselves in archives on your hard drive. For your purpose, this is quite a good option, very common, time-tested and these servers are everywhere.

Answer 3

In windows, starting from winxp, and maybe even earlier, there is a built-in mechanism for assigning attributes to documents, displaying them in Explorer in the form of a table, and searching for them (including full-text). But the list of attributes is determined by the type of file ... in text documents there is an attribute - keywords.
File properties -> summary, display in explorer View -> table (then menu View -> select columns in the table)
ps I'm wondering if anyone has used this mechanism?
