The database should serve a simple GUI with some simple metrics displayed about the database's health, users, collections, anything relevant to the operation of it.

On startup, the database should create an Admin user if none exists, and set the password for it, if no PANGOLIN_ROOT_PASSWORD environment variable is set.

The database should have a separate User's collection that is not exposed to the rest of the database and that manages connections to the database.

It should integrate with the server component.

Authentication should be enabled by default, none of this optional nonsense like Mongo.

Collections should have fast searches (ideally, O(log)n complexity at worst) so we should implement a tree in each collection that gets added to and updated on CRUD operations for that Collection.

AVL trees are probably the best way to achieve this. https://github.com/ancientlore/go-avltree would be a good start.

Ideally, the query wrapper would work with the avl tree service for Find's

pkg/indexes/hashtable.go holds the interfaces for hashtables.

These are necessary for creating indexes in the database.

They should use mmaped files as their persistence layer.

Implement a wrapper around gojsonq - https://github.com/thedevsaddam/gojsonq - for retrieve calls from the database

• For bonus points, implement a gRPC server instead of http
• Should handle all CRUD related operations
• Should allow for / include authentication by default
• create it in pkg/server

Use cobra to create a simple CLI for starting and interacting with the database

start, stop, get and insert commands might be cool for user-testing the database.
