Chennai GeekNight - Commercial Apps using CouchDB

19 June, 2010 - 10:30 am
IST

We are delighted to invite you to our latest GeekNight. An exciting talk about cutting edge technology and tons of learning await you! You also get to meet like-minded geeks in a space that encourages open discussions with fellow technologists.

Understanding NoSQL with a CouchDB App

NoSQL is a movement promoting a loosely defined class of non-relational data stores that break with a long history of relational databases. These data stores may not require fixed table schemas, usually avoid join operations and typically scale horizontally. Academics and papers typically refer to these databases as structured storage.*

Are you wondering what the big deal is behind the whole noSQL movement? Come join us on the 19th of June to explore the nuances of noSQL and get a sneak preview of CouchDB. (a noSQL database) We will take you through a tour of various features that CouchDB has, and also talk about when it is appropriate to use it. You will get hands-on experience developing a sample app using CouchDB at this event, where we will be using Rails to drive the sample app.
