CouchDB in the wild
i wrote a small blog post about our setup today and wanted to share it with
you as CouchDB got mentioned quite often.
http://blog.ideegeo.com/2008/12/09/iwantmyname-using-erlang-and-couchdb-behind-the-scenes/
.
We use CouchDB in production here (a svn built about a month old) and have
moved more and more functionality from PostgreSQL to CouchDB during the
development process. If someone has questions about implementation, usage,
production setups, ... feel free to ask me.
btw, the sales guys love to edit the TLD databse (with futon) and replicate
the changes to the prod DB (via ssh).
cheers

thanks for the flowers :-)
we would still be offline without CouchDB though :)

thats exciting to see that you guys like our new project. we are still quite
busy polishing some rough edges in the interface but i hope to have some
calm days during christmas brake (as far as we will have one this year).
i planned to write some lines about the things that always kind of break
your normalized database structure and how we did it in couch and about
those tables that look like:
create table settings (
id serial,
user_id integer,
ky varchar(100),
vl varchar(100)
);
... looks familiar? :D no more for us ...
i'll write up some docs on how to spot couchDB opportunities in your DB
setup and how to use them from your codebase efficiently. (need some sleep
first though)
cheers

just wanted to say thank you for the blog article. I am really interested in more case
studies of your project (and for sure also other CouchDB based projects).
We also use a PostgreSQL database (and are happy with that ;-) ) for our application and I
would like to know more about integrating CouchDB for some jobs parallel to PostgreSQL.
Maybe you will find the time to write about your experiences when you port more and more
from PostgreSQL to CouchDB - as you allready wrote in the articel ;-) I think these "real
life" case studies will help to spread CouchDB for users like me.

Terrific!
Thanks for sharing your CouchDB success story. This is the kind of
stuff we love to hear :)
Do you want to add iwantmyname to http://wiki.apache.org/couchdb/CouchDB_in_the_wild?
And I am with Noah here, the visuals on http://iwantmyname.com/ are
just lovely. Good job!
Cheers
