This is VK/KittenPHP-DB-Engine project, consisting of efficient PHP-to-C++ translator called "KPHP" or "KittenPHP", and several auxiliary high-performance "engines" (specialized non-relational databases), needed for its deployment.

It has been developed since 2009 mostly by Vkontakte Ltd, operator of social network VK.COM, and thoroughfully tested in high-performance enviroments, until a version useful for the general public was obtained. Fulfilling several previously given public promises, this version is now released for public use under GPL/LGPL terms.

Source code is licensed mostly under GPL version 2 or later (see file LICENSE for the full text and file GPLv2 for list of all authors).

Some portions are licensed under LGPL version 2 or later (see file LICENSE.LGPL for the full text and file LGPLv2 for list of all authors). These are the files which might be later used to create a library, useful for all engines as well as any other future third-party projects.

Each source file should have a header describing its license (GPL or LGPL) and precise list of contributors. If no such header is present, GPLv2 (or later) is assumed, as described in files GPLv2 and LICENSE.
