Transactional Datastore

Chordless

(http://chordless.wiki.sourceforge.net/Chordless is on the lowest level a distributed hash table modeled on Chord and DHash.)

It implements most features talked about in Robust and Efficient Data Management for a Distributed Hash Table and Chord: A Scalable Peer-to-peer Lookup Protocol for Internet Applications with a few exceptions (mostly the lack of erasure codes for storage - if those interest you, look at archipelago, where the rubygem oneliner is a C/ruby implementation of online codes) and a few extras such as support for ACID transactions, remote execution, scalable data structures and a nifty graphical user interface.


Scalaris is a distributed key-value store.

Scalaris is a scalable, transactional, distributed key-value store. It can be used for building scalable Web 2.0 services.

Scalaris uses a structured overlay with a non-blocking Paxos commit protocol for transaction processing with strong consistency over replicas. Scalaris is implemented in Erlang.
