voyage and couchDB

jtuchel
Hi there,

a few days ago somebody showed me Pharo with Voyage and MongoDB. I must
say I was impressed by how easy this all seemed to be, and how far we
got in just two hours of trying stuff.

I was thinking about using CouchDB as a storage medium for larger files
before I saw Voyage an Mongo in action. And I am still not usure if
Mongo would fit as well as CouchDB would.

As far as I understand, Esteban wa/is pretty sure Voyage would fit very
well with other NoSQL DBs than Mongo. But I am not so sure abot it.
AFAIU, part of Voyage's greatness relies on Mongo's nice query facility,
which is not present in Couch. Also, as I understand it, the concept of
Collections (not Smalltalk collections, but the named lists -maybe kind
of db slices - in Mongo) is not present in Couch.

So my question is whether anybody has tried to marry Voyage with Couch?
Any thoughts or ideas?

Joachim
