Restful API? what kind of authentication mechanism it uses? Is it safe to expose db server to public internet?

Hi Karthick,
Right now HarperDB uses Basic Auth, but we will be adding JWT authentication in our next release later this year. Yes it is safe. You can also add users and roles, which you can learn more about here.
