Summary: Open-source users recently reported two occurrences of LSM-tree corruption (https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/5558 is one), which would be caught by options.force_consistency_checks = true. options.force_consistency_checks has a usability limitation because it crashes the service once inconsistency is detected. This makes the feature hard to use. Most users serve from multiple RocksDB shards per server and the impacts of crashing the service is higher than it should be. Instead, we just pass the error back to users without killing the service, and ask them to deal with the problem accordingly.

RocksDB: A Persistent Key-Value Store for Flash and RAM Storage
RocksDB is developed and maintained by Facebook Database Engineering Team. It is built on earlier work on LevelDB by Sanjay Ghemawat (sanjay@google.com) and Jeff Dean (jeff@google.com)
This code is a library that forms the core building block for a fast key value server, especially suited for storing data on flash drives. It has a Log-Structured-Merge-Database (LSM) design with flexible tradeoffs between Write-Amplification-Factor (WAF), Read-Amplification-Factor (RAF) and Space-Amplification-Factor (SAF). It has multi-threaded compactions, making it specially suitable for storing multiple terabytes of data in a single database.
Start with example usage here: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/tree/master/examples
See the github wiki for more explanation.
The public interface is in include/
. Callers should not include or
rely on the details of any other header files in this package. Those
internal APIs may be changed without warning.
Design discussions are conducted in https://www.facebook.com/groups/rocksdb.dev/
