CouchDB - Local Web Platform
13 likes11,479 views
CouchDB is a key-value store and HTTP database built in Erlang that facilitates reliable data management and ease of use for developers through its map-reduce capabilities and local web platform. It emphasizes offline functionality, real-time replication, and a strong embrace of web architecture principles. The presentation discusses CouchDB's robustness, flexibility in handling data formats, and the importance of local applications compared to centralized servers.

CouchDB - Local Web Platform
- 2. Hello Chris Anderson jchris@apache.org / @jchris Apache CouchDB Committer REST and JavaScript enthusiast Director, couch.io
- 3. I’m here to answer the question: What is CouchDB? (from an app devs perspective - and some implementor) How many of you have: built an application around a key value store? written map reduce functions? used Erlang in an application?
- 4. Relax - easy to reason about - reliable - your data is safe with us. - honda accord, not a ferrari - as a debating point among developers
- 12. “no bars”
- 14. Latency Sucks speed of light drawback to cloud computing
- 15. What is CouchDB? - k/v store with map reduce - http database written in erlang
- 16. Local Web Local Web Platform Platform - on your device, local network, in a browser plugin - replication: it just works. makes data portable. - real-time remote backups, ad hoc topologies.
- 17. “Ground Computing” @jhuggins http://www.flickr.com/photos/mcpig/872293700/ - local to the user, more like desktop web than like Gears - local http server - browser apps - same application on the client and server or the cloud
- 18. Offline by Default http://www.flickr.com/photos/shane-h/280084650 - low latency & reliable - 2 tier applications
- 19. http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap050930.html “Of the Web” http://jacobian.org/writing/of-the-web/ Let me tell you something: Django may be built for the Web, but CouchDB is built of the Web. I've never seen software that so completely embraces the philosophies behind HTTP. ... this is what the software of the future looks like. Jacob Kaplan-Moss -- October, 2007 perfect spot - discovered not invented
- 20. - lower barrier for contribution - validate installations - foster interop (CouchDB as a protocol)
- 21. Learning Curve - doc modeling (mvcc / concurrency) - etags / Functional style of REST - eventual consistency
- 25. Robust - single file - append only - no fixup phase - minimizes seeks
- 26. Robust - when britain is burning - Enda Farrell - bbc

- 52. Stuart Langridge - Canonical ! !
- 53. - good because it's the status quo - easy to address with URLs - bad because users are depending on a remote resource for low latency responses - centralized, so traffic spikes impact all users, who might start refreshing
- 54. - local requests are fast - easier to tune for throughput - plays to the strengths of mobile connections
- 55. - users can run different applications on the same dataset deployment Independent Personal - dark matter of the information universe
- 56. messaging peer discovery identity Can we trust intermediate servers?
- 59. anks!
