Sentinel: Git-Powered DB Torches 40-Hour Compliance Nightmares, Makes Auditors Eat Their Logs

Sentinel, a database designed for compliance, simplifies audit trails and data management. Developed by Cyberpath, it uses a filesystem-based approach, storing data as JSON files, allowing for native Git integration and encryption. This enables efficient compliance with regulations like GDPR, SOC 2, and HIPAA. With Sentinel, organizations can reduce compliance costs and complexity, as seen in a certificate management example, where Git logs provide a complete audit trail. Available on crates.io, Sentinel offers a production-ready, open-source solution for compliance-ready data management.
