Riak Core Lite is a framework that simplifies the development of dynamo-style architectures, such as highly-available key-value stores and messaging systems.
Build upon the essence of Riak KV's core with an up-to-date, modular and extensible foundation for elastic distributed services.
To get started with riak_core_lite you can follow Mariano Guerra's tutorials. They are based on the full riak_core, but are still applicable to riak_core_lite.
