/*! @mainpage Reference Guide

WiredTiger is an high performance, scalable, production quality, NoSQL,
Open Source extensible platform for data management.

WiredTiger supports row-oriented storage (where all columns of a row are
stored together), and column-oriented storage (where columns are stored
in groups), allowing for more efficient access and storage of column
subsets.  Additionally, WiredTiger supports log-structured merge trees
(LSM), for sustained throughput under random insert workloads.

WiredTiger includes ACID transactions with standard isolation levels and
durability at both checkpoint and fine-grained granularity.

WiredTiger can be used as a simple key/value store, but also has a
complete schema layer, including indices and projections.

For more information on the WiredTiger architecture and why it might be
right for your project, see:

This documentation describes the programming interface to WiredTiger
used by developers to construct applications.  We follow SQL
terminology: a database is set of tables managed together.  Tables
consist of rows, where each row is a key and its associated value.
Tables may optionally have an associated schema, splitting the value
into a set of columns.  Tables may also have associated indices, each
of which is ordered by one or more columns.

WiredTiger should be generally portable to any 64-bit system supporting
the ANSI C99, POSIX 1003.1 and POSIX 1003.1c (threads extension) standards.
