Presentation: Tweet"CouchApps: Building Web Applications with just a Browser and CouchDB"
CouchDB is more than just a database. It's a web server, an application server and data storage, all wrapped into one application.
Its JavaScript capabilities and the fact that it speaks the web's language, HTTP, natively, makes it possible to deploy full web applications that allow direct interaction between the browser and the database. They're hosted and running inside CouchDB, therefore having direct access to all of CouchDB's document and data query features, even allowing real-time updates of any changes happening inside the database.
It's hard to imagine leaving out the application server in your stack, even the web server, when CouchDB can do everything you need to help you build and serve web applications. We'll look at everything you need to know to get started with CouchDB, how you can access and store data, and how you can build entire web applications as CouchApps.
Keywords: Databases, JavaScript, Web Applications, NoSQL
