I'm thinking these days to use couchdb as a media database, where I can put any data (files, video, audio, images) as attachement to docs that contain any metadata about them, something that could be done with hadoop. Is this right to proceed technically like this? Currently I can't upload more than 420MB (or 420Mo) to CouchDB as attachment, buts is this something that will be supported in the future ? Is CouchDB designed for this use ?
Yes. And Yes. I successfully stored 8 GB of data in an attachment when developing the standalone API. I don't know what causes the 420 MB limit, but I'll have a look. Cheers Jan --
