- a fresh start for object persistence
summary
ObjectBox is a new, non‑SQLite database that stores real Java/Kotlin objects in boxes via a BoxStore and claims up to 10x faster CRUD plus special fast lookups (benchmarks show get‑by‑ID up to ~50x). It makes relations first‑class and mostly transparent object relations with lazy or eager loading, generates meta classes for a query‑builder API, supports Kotlin and RxJava interop, and provides ACID transactions with MVCC and lightweight schema evolution driven by the class model.
