**************************************************************************************************************

Don't miss this opportunity to attend training sessions led by Jan Lehnardt, CouchOne Co-founder and Alan McKean, Couchbase Director of Training. This is the first time a CouchDB training has been offered directly from the Couchbase staff -- what better way to increase your CouchDB skills than by learning from the people who knows it best?

Apache CouchDB, commonly referred to as CouchDB, is an open source document-oriented database written in the Erlang programming language. It borrows from NoSQL and is designed for local replication and to scale horizontally across a wide range of devices. CouchDB is supported by commercial enterprises CouchBase.

This Couchbase Training opportunity gives you one and two day opportunities to get your hands on Apache CouchDB. Each workshop will be divided between instruction and hands-on exercises to get you up to speed as quickly as possible with your own CouchDB-based applications. 

• Introduction to CouchDB is a 1 day course that will cover the essential CouchDB toolkit, including core API, document design, views and replication. 

• Advanced CouchDB is a 1 day session focusing on advanced view patterns and queries, bulk document operations and how to consume changes and create replication filters.                                       
• Comprehensive CouchDB is two days of training that will take you from introductory development skills to advanced capabilities including all of the areas covered in each of the 1-day Introduction and Advanced sessions described above.
