# Shared States

- [MongoDB Collection](https://docs.rierino.com/devops/microservices/building-blocks/data-sources/shared-states/mongodb-collection.md): This state manager (com.rierino.state.manager.MongoStateManager) uses MongoDB for storing and reading data, typically as the master data store.
- [Jooq (SQL) Table](https://docs.rierino.com/devops/microservices/building-blocks/data-sources/shared-states/jooq-sql-table.md): This state manager (com.rierino.state.manager.JooqStateManager) uses a SQL database, mapping Json data into one or more tables.
- [Redis Map](https://docs.rierino.com/devops/microservices/building-blocks/data-sources/shared-states/redis-map.md): This state manager (com.rierino.state.manager.RedisStateManager) uses Redis for storing and reading data, typically for shared caching purposes.
- [Couchbase Collection](https://docs.rierino.com/devops/microservices/building-blocks/data-sources/shared-states/couchbase-collection.md): This state manager (com.rierino.state.manager.CouchbaseStateManager) uses Couchbase for storing and reading data.
- [Elasticsearch Index](https://docs.rierino.com/devops/microservices/building-blocks/data-sources/shared-states/elasticsearch-index.md): This state manager (com.rierino.state.manager.elastic.ElasticStateManager) uses Elasticsearch as an aggregate store, which is typically used as the search engine.
- [Elasticsearch Joined](https://docs.rierino.com/devops/microservices/building-blocks/data-sources/shared-states/elasticsearch-joined.md): This state manager (com.rierino.state.manager.elastic.ElasticJoinedStateManager) is similar to ElasticStateManager, but can join multiple aggregates into a single index for efficient search.
- [Etcd Namespace](https://docs.rierino.com/devops/microservices/building-blocks/data-sources/shared-states/etcd-namespace.md): This state manager (com.rierino.state.manager.EtcdStateManager) uses etcd for storing and reading key-value data, typically about systems configurations.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.rierino.com/devops/microservices/building-blocks/data-sources/shared-states.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
