Hi All it's the first time i post an email in here :), so let me introduce myself, i'm Aditya, a Ruby on Rails (RoR) developer and a long time SQL user days ago, i decided to learn something new, and i found "NoSql" as new kids on the block in database area, it seems fun to learn any other paradigm beside SQL so i picked apache couchdb and install it in my Mac, now i'm ready to develop my personal project using RoR & CouchDB in Ruby world, there are bunch of CouchDb library that can be used to connect to RoR, i found couchrest & couch potato seems pretty interesting
i read the couchdb tutorial a bit, and it's suprise me, because the data can be accessed from HTTP directly this fact actually made me think, if there a way to access couchdb data directly, why do we need some kind of library as "middleware" ? i mean in OLD days sql, it's imposible to connect from Programming Language to Database directly, so that's why they create driver/library for it so i need any advise from you guys, which path i need to choose, using plain http connection or using a library ?, to connect Rails App to Couch Db any advise is much appreciated *apologize for my bad english, it isn't my main language* regards Aditya -- blog : http://adityakircon.blogsome.com ym / twitter : kirconboy skype : adit_skype Be Nice.
