Can CouchDB handle 15 million records daily?

I'm relatively new to NoSQL databases and I have to evaluate different NoSQL-Solutions for a monitoring tool.

The situ开发者_开发问答ation is the following: One datum is just about 100 Bytes big, but there are really a lot of them. During a day we get about 15 million records... So I'm currently testing with 900 million records (about 15GB as SQL-Insert Script)

My question is: Does Couchdb fit my needs? I need to do range querys (on the date the records were created) and sum up some of the columns acoording to groups definied by "secondary indexes" stored in the datum.) I know that MapReduce is probably the best solution to calculate that, but is the JavaScript of CouchDB able to do this in an acceptable time?

I already tried MongoDB but it's really poor MapReduce made a crappy job... I also read about HBase and Cassandra. But maybee CouchDB is also a good possibility

I hope I gave you all the needed information... Thank you for your help!

Frankly, at this time, unless you have very good hardware, Apache CouchDB may run into problems. Map/reduce will probably be fine. CouchDB's incremental map/reduce is ideal for your requirements.

As a developer, you will love it! Unfortunately as a sysadmin, you may notice more disk usage and i/o than expected.

I suggest to try it. Being HTTP and Javascript, it's easy to do a feasibility test. Just remember, the initial view build will take a long time (let's assume for argument it takes longer than every other competing database). But that time will never be spent again. Map/reduce runs only once per document (actually per document update).
