Tech Behind The Scenes: CouchDB Case Study

| No TrackBacks

Apache CouchDB logo, a free and open source so...
Thanks to our friends at Couch.io for publishing their case study about CouchDB at iWantMyName. We started using the NoSQL database mainly for serving content but meanwhile switched nearly all site functionality from PostgreSQL to CouchDB.

For example, recently our shopping cart got replaced with a simple map/reduce based CouchDB solution that only needs some small glue and interface code. Before, it used to be a quite complex piece of code and database magic so for us the transition from traditional software design to a document based approach was mainly getting rid of heaps of code and logic.

If you're a techie, you should read the iWantMyName case study on Couch.io.
