The following goals are proposed:

• Implement data persistence with log-structured key-value files
• Implement merging and compaction operations
• Use the concurrent map implementation as a hash index
• Present a REST server to interact with the db. Endpoints suggested:
  - GET /key
  - POST /key?value=<value>
