SnappyDB is a key-value NoSQL database library for Android built on LevelDB with Snappy compression. It stores primitive types, Serializable objects, and arrays in a type-safe way using Kryo serialization, and can outperform SQLite for read/write operations.

Use cases

• store key-value data on android without sqlite
• persist serializable objects in an android app
• fast local nosql storage for mobile
• cache primitive types and arrays on device
• replace sqlite with a leveldb-based key-value store
• compress redundant local data on android

When to choose

• you need a simple type-safe key-value store on Android
• you want faster read/write performance than SQLite for your access pattern
• you prefer a NoSQL approach over relational storage on mobile

When to avoid

• you need an actively maintained library - the last release was 2019
• you need relational queries or SQL
• you target iOS or non-Android platforms
• you need multi-platform or JVM server-side storage
