"A DBA walks into a NOSQL bar, but turns and leaves because he couldn't
find atable"
*
Regarding nosql, I am interested in the benefit of not having a schema,
specially, when it is complex and changing.
I think this is the main advantage of nosql.... no schema
means maximum flexibility.
The data of an application can be divided into two groups:
1- simple ( easy to discover the data model and stable ) .. list of users ,
list of items , list of locations,... and their relations
can be done by web2py DAL .
2- complex ... documents , their contents and flow of the documents
(workflow)...job order , service order, parts request , rfq , quotation ,
invoice ,purchase order...
can be done by web2py and pymongo.... no DAL ...
Extension of web2py to include (2) will be great, but an example of (1) and
(2) working together is a enough for me.( eg. workflow)

Ashraf
