I swear, I spent over an hour going through the mailing list trying to
find an answer.
I know that CouchDB is a document oriented DB and I know that Hadoop is
a File System and that both implement Map/Reduce. But is it possible to
have them stacked with Hadoop being the FS in use and CouchDB being the
DB? This way, wouldn't you get the distributed/clustered FS abilities of
Hadoop in addition to the powerful retrieval abilities of CouchDB?
If its not possible, and I suspect that it is so, _why_? Don't they
operate on two seperate levels? Wouldn't CouchDB sort of replace HBase?
Thanks in advance for any and all replies
