Query about your database (Couchdb)

Hi Couchdb Group,





I am Ghada, fresh graduate and now work as a trainee.
The internship ask me to do an application on windows 8.1 using C# and XAML.

My idea required cloud database  that contains images and tables.........,to let  people see the updated images in the database.


My answer:
Is  Couchdb can help me to save my updated data (on cloud), and return them to any user requesting them by C# ?
If it is yes.....
Is it free?

I appreciate your time reviewing my application.
Thank you very much.
 
Kind regards,
Ghada N. Abu-Yahya

These questions are best addressed to the CouchDb user list, so I've copied
this answer there in case anyone else has a similar question.

The things you want to do are all possible. CouchDb can run on any version
of Windows, and there are cloud-based versions if you want your data in the
cloud. Any file, including images, can be saved as an attachment to a
CouchDb document, so that part should be no problem.

There are a few .NET libraries listed here
<http://wiki.apache.org/couchdb/Getting_started_with_C%23>- I have used
LoveSeat with great success, though I have recently moved to just using the
.NET HttpClient class with JSON.NET for serialisation.

CouchDb and the .NET libraries are all free, but you would probably have to
pay if you want to store your data in the cloud.

Perhaps it's confusing, but IrisCouch provide CouchDB hosting,
Cloudant run a distributed database service based on and compatible
with CouchDB, but does not run CouchDB itself.

Hi Ghadah,

you should keep posting this again to the user mailinglist as these
questions are maybe interesting for other users.

you're welcome

 I am very confused, I do not Know from where I start with C#.

CouchDB is a database you can use with various programming languages. Most
likely someone who is using one language wrote a wrapper
for speaking with the database. But this has nothing to do with CouchDB. So
I assume you are familiar in writing C# code. The CouchDB Wiki is not the
platform
to search for a starting point with C# and CouchDB. Please search the
internet for that. I do not write C# code but maybe someone else can help
you.

Cloudant is offering CouchDB hosting. Free and payed. Please refer to the
different plans here: https://cloudant.com/product/pricing/

This list is for helping CouchDB users. So you really don't have to be
sorry ;-). Keep asking!

please have a quick look here:

yes CouchDB is a Open Source project. You can store all types of files as
attachments to a document.

http://docs.couchdb.org/en/latest/api/document/index.html

You should also have a look at https://cloudant.com/ for hosting CouchDB.
