Thanks Jan! And thanks to all who have reviewed and commented.

I'll plan on sending this to Cassandra= by EOD today (ET). Thank you for the introduction there, Sally!

>>
>> CouchDB stores data as JSON documents, rather than in structured t= ables like relational databases. This approach lends itself to a more denor= malized data model, where all the data related to a particular record is en= capsulated in a single document. Because data in CouchDB can be logically g= rouped together into individual documents, CouchDB implementations provide = the ability to shard the database for better performance and scale horizont= ally across many nodes.

>>
>>
>>
>>
>>
>> Specific to Big Data, is there a benefit to an open source versus = commercial solution, and vice versa? Why or why not?
>>
>>
>>
>> As businesses turn to DBMS solutions to handle a wide array of pro= jects, the open source options offer free, customizable, community tested s= olutions. Many commercial products are built on open source databases, so c= ompanies have the flexibility of the open source software coupled with the = services and benefits of a brand (for example, IBM Cloudant offers a CouchD= B-based managed service, with additional features Cloudant has built and la= yered on top of the CouchDB open source database). Another benefit, and a r= eason behind the open source basis of so many NoSQL databases, is the innov= ation that inherently accompanies open source. Instead of a small team work= ing on a proprietary solution, open source projects are supported by commun= ities with diverse collaborators from different backgrounds.
