Hi Esteban, if I understood correctly Voyage is primarily an abstraction layer to access NoSQL databases. Currently MongoDB or the image can be used as a backend. Are there any other backends available or planned (for instance to UnQLite using PUnqlite [1]). As UnQLite is an embeddable database of really small size I guess it will be as sucessful for the NoSQL world as SQlite3 was for the relation DBMS world and supporting it as one possible backend for Voyage might be a real plus. At least I see that MongoDB is 102MB to install before one can use it and unqlite library [2] is only a few KB ;) So it is easier to package, deploy, ... - I havent checked the other features of Mongo vs. PunQlite so far. Any comments about backends in general or UnQlite in particular? Thx T. [1] http://forum.world.st/ANN-PunQLite-a-new-NoSQL-wrapper-for-Pharo-td4732162.h...

Ho Torsten, well⦠I planned Riak and maybe Tokyo and Omnibase (but when I find the time⦠not much this days). I never thought about UnQLite (and also I never hear about it before :P ) cheers, Esteban On 16 Jan 2014, at 14:03, Torsten Bergmann <astares@gmx.de> wrote:
