This book introduces you to Apache CouchDB, a document-oriented database that offers a different way to model your data. CouchDB is a schema-free database, designed to work with common applications that handle document based information such as contacts, invoices, and receipts. In CouchDB, three of the core developers gently guide you through this database, using clear and practical scenarios to help you build an example application.
Full Description
With this book, you will:
- Understand the basics of document-based storage and manipulation
- Model data as self-contained JSON documents
- Manage basic document CRUD (create, read, updated, delete)
- Handle evolving data naturally
- Query and aggregate data in CouchDB, using MapReduce views
- Replicate data between nodes
- Carry out deployment tuning for performance and reliability
CouchDB is ideally suited for hosting collaborative web applications, and has the power and flexibility for industrial strength data storage as well. It's also free.
This is the only book available on CouchDB, and although it's still in progress, you can get going with this technology through our Rough Cuts edition, which lets you read the manuscript as it evolves, either online or via PDF.
