Other than MongoDB and Memcached, what key-value stores run on Windows? Most of the ones I've seen seem to only run on Linux (Hypertable, Redis, Lightcloud).

Berkeley DB is available. I'm surprised no-one has mentioned it yet.

You can build it on Windows either with a native or Cygwin toolchain, but it's probably best with MSVC if you're going to be linking it with C#.

I would take a look at this article from highscalability.com. It describes a few options that you may want to consider, including Tokyo Cabinet/Tyrant, CouchDB and MongoDB.

  • CouchDb is great fun, I'm getting a lot of mileage out of it at the moment, with the fact that you can use Ubuntu One to synchronize. Well you can on Linux. But I don't think it would be too hard to implement on Windows, as long as the ubuntu guys have let the REST protocol free and easy with some Authorization. – WeNeedAnswers May 19 '10 at 14:10

Redis is C99 (Posix). It should be trivial to build and run it on cygwin.
