Celebrate 10 Years with Us — Get SQS for Free! posted Thursday, November 21, 2024 by The Neighbourhoodie CouchDB Team
Neighbourhoodie is turning 10, and we’re excited to celebrate by giving away five (5) licenses for Structured Query Server (SQS) to teams working with CouchDB. SQS is the tool that gives more teammates access to your data in the language they already know, SQL. Here’s everything you need to know about celebrating with us and grabbing your license.
While members of our team have been building and working with CouchDB for more than 15 years, Neighbourhoodie was founded in 2014. Over the past decade we’ve worked to make the technology we love more accessible, efficient and impactful. Structured Query Server (SQS) is one of the solutions that does just that.
What Is SQS?
SQS makes SQL queries possible in CouchDB, empowering more teammates to work with a database and extract data without sacrificing performance. When we launched it in March 2024, we put together a detailed introduction to SQS that covers functionality and set-up. Here are some of the highlights:
- SQS allows you to use complex
SQL SELECT
statements with your NoSQL CouchDB. - It can speed workflows up and make them more efficient while maintaining performance and the full function of replication features.
- With it, you get an HTTP interface that returns JSON without the need for an SQL client.
This fast indexing tool is capable of handling millions of documents per database, and is normally purchased once-off via a license for 1490 EUR (excl. VAT).
Your team can also book us for support with installation, usage and advanced features through the SQS Support subscription at 44 EUR per user per month. We’ll help you implement and learn best practices to make the most of SQS.
Who Should Apply?
SQS is for teams who want to enable smarter decision-making by simplifying data access. It can help people in specific roles make the most of what is at the core of your business, your data. For example:
- Data Analysts can navigate your database without development resources
- Product Managers can uncover data insights independently
At the same time, it won’t compromise long-term stability or scalability. Your engineers will appreciate that it is designed for all but the most extreme scaling setups (and if you had to wonder if it might apply to you, chances are not high it does).
How It Works
We’ve kept it simple! To take part, send an email to sqs@neighbourhood.ie and share some information about:
- your project
- why SQS is a good fit for your team
We’ll reach out to let you know if you were successful. In return, we ask that you share some feedback about SQS and your experience getting it up and running.
The special offer is for the current version of SQS is available for a limited time. Our gift doesn’t include support, but that can be purchased separately.
That’s it!
Great tools are influenced by the people who use them everyday, and SQS is no different. We’re as excited to share this great solution with you, as we are to learn how it can better serve your team and use case.
We can’t wait to hear from you — your insights will help ensure SQS evolves into an even more powerful resource.
