But in couchdb, a database is a number of documents? And those documents can represent several object types? So do I need each document to have a field representing what type it is? (eg a field that is unique to that document type). Yes. The convention is a property called “type” whose value is a string identifying that type of document. The type names generally just need to be unique within your database. Or does each document type go in its own database? No. There’s almost never a need to split an app into multiple databases. —Jens
