Henry's writing style makes advanced concepts accessible and practical for readers of all levels. Who is it for? This book is crafted for developers, database administrators, and IT professionals who want to learn NoSQL database basics and Couchbase's capabilities. Beginners with no prior experience in NoSQL will find step-by-step guidance, and experienced developers can expand their skill set to include Couchbase. A familiarity with Java programming will be helpful but is not mandatory.

Pro Couchbase Development: A NoSQL Platform for the Enterprise discusses programming for Couchbase using Java and scripting languages, querying and searching, handling migration, and integrating Couchbase with Hadoop, HDFS, and JSON. It also discusses migration from other NoSQL databases like MongoDB. This book is for big data developers who use Couchbase NoSQL database or want to use Couchbase for their web applications as well as for those migrating from other NoSQL databases like MongoDB and Cassandra. For example, a reason to migrate from Cassandra is that it is not based on the JSON document model with support for a flexible schema without having to define columns and supercolumns. The target audience is largely Java developers but the book also supports PHP and Ruby developers who want to learn about Couchbase. The author supplies examples in Java, PHP, Ruby, and JavaScript. After reading and using this hands-on guide for developing with Couchbase, you'll be able to build complex enterprise, database and cloud applications that leverage this powerful platform.

Couchbase Essentials is your gateway to mastering Couchbase, a powerful NoSQL database designed for building flexible and scalable applications. Through this book, you will understand Couchbase's key features, explore its indexing and querying capabilities, and learn to design schemas for its schemaless document model. What this Book will help me do Understand how to install and configure a single-node Couchbase environment. Master putting data into and retrieving data from Couchbase using its API. Develop skills in creating secondary and advanced indexes using Couchbase MapReduce views. Learn to design an efficient schema for Couchbase's schemaless document database. Create and query a functional application utilizing Couchbase and its N1QL query language.

Today’s highly interactive websites pose a challenge for traditional SQL databases—the ability to scale rapidly and serve loads of concurrent users. With this concise guide, you’ll learn how to build web applications on top of Couchbase Server 2.0, a NoSQL database that can handle websites and social media where hundreds of thousands of users read and write large volumes of information. Using food recipe information as examples, this book demonstrates how to take advantage of Couchbase’s document-oriented database design, and how to store and query data with various CRUD operations. Discover why Couchbase is better than SQL databases with memcached tiers for managing data from the most interactive portions of your application. Learn about Couchbase Server’s cluster-based architecture and how it differs from SQL databases Choose a client library for Java, .NET, Ruby, Python, PHP, or C, and connect to a cluster Structure data in a variety of formats, from serialized objects, a stream of raw bytes, or as JSON documents Learn core storage and retrieval methods, including document IDs, expiry times, and concurrent updates Create views with map/reduce and learn Couchbase mechanisms for querying and selection

Starting with the core architecture and structure of Couchbase Server, this title will tell you everything you need to know to install and setup your first Couchbase cluster. You'll be given guidance on sizing your cluster so that you maximise your performance. After installation, you'll be shown how to use the admin web console to administer your server, and then learn the techniques behind the specific tasks behind cluster management.
