This post is part of our series on our work for the Sovereign Tech Fund (STF). Our introduction post explains why and how we are contributing to various Open Source projects.

You may not have heard of Yocto, but you have most certainly used Yocto, at least indirectly. Yocto lets you build a bespoke Linux distribution for your embedded devices. Many “smart home” or otherwise smart appliances likely run a variant of Linux under the hood (that you never see or interact with) and chances are good that the manufacturer used Yocto to create and maintain that bespoke Linux distribution. Their users and supporters are a veritable who is who of the technology industry: Intel, AMD, ARM, Cisco, Microsoft, Siemens, Texas Instruments, Dell, LG, Qualcomm, you name them.

Introducing Structured Query Server posted Tuesday, March 5, 2024 by The Neighbourhoodie Team productannouncementnews

In the vast realm of databases, two types have consistently marked their presence – the traditional SQL databases and the more flexible NoSQL counterparts. SQL databases, with their structured nature, have been serving businesses for decades. On the other hand, NoSQL databases, notably Apache CouchDB, have catered to the needs of modern web applications and their semi-structured data requirements.

While both have their distinct strengths, there's often been a wish amongst users and developers for something that combines the two — a tool that brings together the scalability of NoSQL with the precise querying of SQL. In response to this need, Neighbourhoodie presents the Structured Query Server. Designed with feedback from the developer community, this addition aims to address common challenges faced by CouchDB users and offer enhanced capabilities for data analysts.

This blog is going show the features of our Structured Query Server for Apache CouchDB, its application, and how it harmonise the two different approaches.
