Course Description

Imagine a world without SQL. Your database doesn't have a schema. Indexes are not necessary. Replication is already built into the plan. From the beginning, scaling is part of our plan. CouchDB, an Apache Foundation incubator project inspired by Amazon's SimpleDB but open-source, promises you the world. Learn how to install CouchDB directly from source and how to use CouchRest. You will also learn how to create a personal notes app that uses CouchDB. Learn about the different methods to serialize Ruby objects into JSON. Javascript will allow you to create custom views and synchronize them with your database. You'll also get to know a little about the fascinating personal story behind CouchDB. This course will help you, whether you are looking to use CouchDB in a Ruby project, or simply want to keep up to date on the latest developments in database technology.
