Learn how to effectively model JSON documents for Couchbase Server in this comprehensive conference talk. Explore the multi-model database's architecture, including its ability to manipulate data in key-value form and JSON documents without predefined schemas. Discover best practices for JSON design choices, data nesting, surrogate keys, and key-value patterns. Examine real-world examples of JSON schemas, including type specifications, validations, and property requirements. Delve into crucial considerations such as document size, atomicity, complexity, and speed when making data modeling decisions. Gain insights into Couchbase's modern architecture, multi-dimensional scaling, and cross-data center replication capabilities. By the end of this talk, acquire the knowledge needed to optimize your data modeling approach for Couchbase Server and enhance your NoSQL database skills.
