[dba-Tech] “Depend on me, and I’ll set you free!”

This man wields logical fallacy masterfully, aka "Marketing"

According to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CouchDB, "each database is a collection of independent documents. Each document maintains its own data and self-contained schema."

This implies that these documents have some sort of organization that could later be useful in data-mining using MapReduce (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MapReduce)

So, yes, this can retrieve web pages based on the date or some keyword.

Since NoSQL typically (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NoSQL ) offers little functionality beyond record storage (e.g. key–value stores), 
it appears to be completely inappropriate for maintaining, say, an accounting system, inventory, or recording business transactions.

The proposal of the "use case" as a panacea for relational database functionality is, at best, bewildering.

 Hi All --

It's funny I've just planned to try to implement one experimental project using "No DB" (NoSQL) approach - and here I have got an interesting "rant article" arrived :)

Thank you.
