CouchDB is Awesome

Dangers of SQL

Non-relational Database, aka NoSQL

Column, Key-Value, Graph & Document

CouchDB Inside

Documents, B-Trees, & Keys... Oh my

Like this...

						 { name: value } 
					

Or like this...

					{
	{ name: value }:
	{ name:
		{ name:
			{ name: value }
		}
	}
}
					

CouchDB Outside

Or why I hate ODBC, table translation, and SQL in general

Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.
--Confucius

Relax

Wait, so I can...

						curl -X GET localhost:5984
					

Create a DB with...

						curl -X PUT localhost:5984/something_old
					

Inserting be like...

						
curl -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
            -X POST 127.0.0.1:5984/something_old \
            -d '{"company": "IBM Inc."}'
            
           

Or Upload whole docs

						curl -X PUT -d @example.json localhost:5984/something_blue/12345
					

Select stuff

						curl -X GET localhost:5984/somethign_old/12345
           

Built In GUI

						http://localhost:5984/_utils/
           

What about Map/Reduce

If our documents are JSON & our results are JSON...
