2.5. VoltDB in Action: Running the Sample Applications

Once you install VoltDB, you can use the sample applications to see VoltDB in action and get a better understanding of how it works. The easiest way to do this is to use the Demo Dashboard, which walks you through two of the samples. Open the file named Click Here to Start.html in the top level VoltDB folder to start the dashboard.

See the README file in the /examples subfolder for a complete list of the applications and brief instructions. The accompanying book Getting Started with VoltDB provides more detail about running the example applications and using them to learn how VoltDB works.

Getting Started also contains a tutorial, Hello World, that walks you through the process of writing a VoltDB application from scratch. The sources for the Hello World tutorial are also included in the /doc/tutorials subfolder.
