# Documentation
|
||||
|
||||
[LevelDB library documentation](https://github.com/google/leveldb/blob/master/doc/index.md) is online and bundled with the source code.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
# Limitations
|
||||
|
||||
* This is not a SQL database. It does not have a relational data model, it does not support SQL queries, and it has no support for indexes.
|
||||
* Only a single process (possibly multi-threaded) can access a particular database at a time.
|
||||
* There is no client-server support builtin to the library. An application that needs such support will have to wrap their own server around the library.
