couchdb - sit and relax on your couch!

Moved by need I have met CouchDb
Pretty nice and easy, to be up and running it took 5/10 minutes, and then after short walktrough I was able to build my own database and feed it with my own data, clicking on Futon GUI

The idea behind the Couch is view-driven. You put your documents and then take them out through views written in js. As for now OK. I think it may be a good choice concerning the "thought container".
Of course switching to NoSQL solutions requires also switching of your mind attitude. Some things are possible and easier, but other are harder. For instance such an easy task as timestamp auto generation needs some complicated hacks in Couch. But you wanted that!
What is nice all of this works as REST service. So is easily consumable. Apart from that there is nice javascript client that I could use also.

how to store .. tags?

Some time ago I made little app which helps me a lot, my thoughts container,
First it's backend I based on Elasticsearch. Great tool, but as for now Elasticsearch is not a database, and there is no "security" layer built-in. So I need to switch.
My first shoot was MongoDb but wait, is this the only noSql provider ever? MongoDb has a nice PAAS tool but it is not wise to tie myself with solution only because I like some cloud... So I decided to compare Mongo with Couch, the similar solution

Some pros for Couch as for me are that it is possible to use REST directly, it is advised to use Couch when working with map-reduce. What's more I am going to make solution that user is frequently adding data. They say it is also safer solution.

I think I will try couch
