I need to import vast amounts of data into a couch database every night. The company providing us the data does not provide a list of changes, so we need to regenerate everything from scratch.
I was thinking that it would be nice if I could create a new database in couch, copy in all the new data, then rename them once it is done. That way my old data can stay live while the new data is importing. Is there a way to rename databases? So, I would have an "imported_data" database, create a "new_imported_database", then delete the old and rename the new when the import finished. Any other ideas?
