Akonadi

Akonadi aims to be an extensible cross-desktop storage service for PIM data and meta data providing concurrent read, write, and query access. It provides unique desktop-wide object identification and retrieval.

Akonadi framework provides two parts: the server, and client libraries to access the data managed by the server.
