With CouchDB, because we are a database, people often asked us to add features that were in traditional RDBMS's, but didn't fit well with the CouchDB data model. Not being intimately familiar with CouchDB's model and how it all fits together, they don't realize that what they're asking for simply doesn't work. But because we explicitly stated on the project site we aren't a relational database and aren't trying to replace relational databases, it made …
…Oakland, singing the CouchDB praises.
This has cost us a total of $ 709.57!
Just saw a commercial for CouchDB. Seriously. I'm at a loss for words. # couchdb # couchio
Someday CouchDB will actually be inside your TV, you can watch CouchDB while watching your CouchDB TV from your couch.Yo dawg.
This is the place to be to learn and hack on Apache CouchDB.
In addition to unconference style discussions, we've got some great speakers: Selena Deckelman , Stuart Langridge , Ted Leung , Josh Berkus , Dion Almaer and me :) And there is special discount right now in honor of our 1.0 release.
One thing I'm really excited to talk about is our work porting CouchDB to mobile platforms. Android, iOS, RIM, etc. We've got …
…you an idea, my job description mentions Rails, Merb, Sinatra, CouchdB, MongoDB, Redis, AWS. All these Ruby technologies are actually already used in production or are being seriously evaluated.
I'm also really looking forward to join the existing team. I know I'm going to love working with a bunch of awesome developers coming from various backgrounds.
Those who know me, know that I'm not a morning person. And while your typical office job is categorized as ‘9-5′, …
Whenever you update a document in CouchDB, you update it as a whole, there's nothing in between. That kind of makes sense with the way CouchDB works, but as a user it annoys me from time to time. It seems so pointless fetching and sending a whole document when I'm just updating one attribute. There's a neat RFC for the PATCH command in HTTP making the rounds, I'd love to see that end up in CouchDB at some point. No idea how likely that is, the makers of CouchDB…
…already supports two of the most popular NoSQL databases, MongoDB and CouchDB, as add-ons: MongoHQ and Cloudant . We also support the transient key-value datastore, Memcache , via Northscale 's service.
Looking forward to the future: we have more NoSQL add-ons coming down the pipeline, such as Redis To Go . And we'll be continuing to work with technology leaders in the NoSQL community to help them bring their database services …
…documents , and even fetching linked documents together with the parent in one request. In CouchDB on the other hand, you can emit linked documents in views. You can't be fully selective about the document data you're interested in, but if all you want is fetch linked documents, there is one or two ways to do that. Also, graph databases have made it their main focus to make traversal of associated documents an incredibly cheap operation. Something your relational database …
…or Ubuntu 9.04 and older, the Chef Server is not supported because the CouchDB and SOLR versions are not recent enough to be compatible with Chef.
If you were using the development packages from Joshua Timberman's Ubuntu PPA for 0.8.x, you can upgrade directly to 0.9.
Since Chef includes support for installing Gems via the "gem_package" resource, we depend on it. The packaged RubyGems is sufficient for the provider. If you wish to install RubyGems…
Scott Swigart: To start, please introduce yourself and talk a little bit about the CouchDB project and the Couchio company.
Damien Katz: I am the founder of the CouchDB project, and I've been in the industry now for 15 years. I started in the software industry on LotusNotes, the back-end database model of which is largely the inspiration for CouchDB, although Lotus Notes was a much larger project than CouchDB is.
About five years ago, I was done with a startup and decided …
This ruote-couch isn't very fast, but I've come to appreciate CouchDB and use it in 2 or 3 projects. I like the comfort of having Couch as a storage for ruote.
I have upgraded ruote-dm as well. It's a DataMapper backed ruote storage gem. I made sure ruote-dm could be shared by multiple workers (though I still have an issue with one of those special tests, I hope to fix that in the coming weeks).
It seems to work well with the latest DataMapper (1.0).
