pyhs is a pure Python client for HandlerSocket plugin to MySQL database. In short, it provides access to the data omitting the SQL engine in a NoSQL-like interface. It allows all simple operations (get, insert, update, delete) over indexed data to perform considerably faster than by usual means.

HandlerSocket is a NoSQL plugin for MySQL. It works as a daemon inside the mysqld process, accept tcp connections, and execute requests from clients. HandlerSocket does not support SQL queries. Instead, it supports simple CRUD operations on tables. Because of the following reasons ... [More] , HandlerSocket is much faster than the mysqld/libmysql pair in some circumstances: - HandlerSocket manipulates data without parsing SQL, which causes less CPU usage. - HandlerSocket reads many requests from clients and executes their requests in bulk, which causes less CPU and disk usage. - HandlerSocket client/server protocol is more compact than the mysql/libmysql pair, which causes less network usage.
