These are all reasons why I'm leaning towards CouchDB.
- badmash69 16y agoThe good thing about MongoDB is that all the gotchas are well known in the community and documented. Thats actually all the more reason to stay with MongoDB.
- seanmcq 16y agoAs a general rule, switching from technology (x) which has actual users sharing lessons learned on the internet to technology (y) because it doesn't have many actual users and they haven't shared any lessons, is good way to become a beta tester.
- jcromartie 16y agoBut does Mongo have more users or just more gotchas?
- seanmcq 16y agoSorry for the slow reply. I can't speak about mongo's user base, but it does appear larger than CouchDB's. Both of them are several orders of magnitude less mature / well understood than MySQL. I'm simply trying to say, that technologies with no problems must have no users.
- dhimes 16y agoHere's an interesting presentation on the nosql dbs you might enjoy. I'm not the author but I'm working with CouchDB right now and this came across the mailing list yesterday. The mailing list is actually quite good. http://www.slideshare.net/danglbl/schemaless-databases http://www.slideshare.net/danglbl/schemaless-databases
