Lightning Memory-Mapped Database (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lightning_Memory-Mapped_Database) is designed for exactly these requirements. It gives non-blocking access to the data - directly in-memory. Yet it also persists the data to disk in the background. So in case the software is restarted, it can pick off exactly where it left its dataset. LMDB is highly recommended. BR, Michael A
