tokyo cabinet & tyrant tutorial

Question

Can somebody refer a good tutorial on tokyo cabinet and tokyo tyrant

Answer 1

Besides the official homepages for Tokyo Cabinet and Tokyo Tyrant, I've found Ilya Grigorik's blog post quite informative, it also contains a link to his presentation on the subject.

Which language are you using with the Tokyo family btw?

Edit: James Edward Gray II's blog has these two interesting posts as well: Tokyo Cabinet as a Key-Value Store and Tokyo Cabinet's Key-Value Database Types

Edit: The first two links are no longer valid.

Answer 2

A nice overview is given by Mikio Hirabayashi, the author of Tokyo Cabinet, here.

It is worth to have look at it to get an owerview over the variety of databases Tokyo Cabinet offers.
