# 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 by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

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

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

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.
