Hi there, a few days ago somebody showed me Pharo with Voyage and MongoDB. I must say I was impressed by how easy this all seemed to be, and how far we got in just two hours of trying stuff. I was thinking about using CouchDB as a storage medium for larger files before I saw Voyage an Mongo in action. And I am still not usure if Mongo would fit as well as CouchDB would. As far as I understand, Esteban wa/is pretty sure Voyage would fit very well with other NoSQL DBs than Mongo. But I am not so sure abot it. AFAIU, part of Voyage's greatness relies on Mongo's nice query facility, which is not present in Couch. Also, as I understand it, the concept of Collections (not Smalltalk collections, but the named lists -maybe kind of db slices - in Mongo) is not present in Couch. So my question is whether anybody has tried to marry Voyage with Couch? Any thoughts or ideas? Joachim
CouchDB is an interesting backend, Iâm also interested on having this option available looking forward to comments
