This works in some situations but the OPs use case seems to suggest near real-time access to records that would only have recently been created. I'm unsure if CSV could work well here.

I suspect:

- memcached if you don't need to persist the data

- Redis if you don't know whether you need to use Redis or FoundationDB

- FoundationDB if you learn that Redis doesn't do what you need

I don't mean this in any kind of a derogatory way but I suspect that if you need to ask then you probably don't need FDB.

The principle of keeping tech stacks boring and using well established components is less exciting as an Engineer but is usually the best choice.

"A CPU for use in space must first be MIL-STD-883"

Is this just for NASA craft? Are there any regulations for private craft or international standards?

Speaking from experience: they're not even managing to service paying customers well.
