    <p>Our team is currently working on some killer ios location app that we fear "explode" in a good way, so we want to put effort thinking about scalability and Availability.</p> <p>After we read that draw something is based on couchbase NoSQL, we scanned the couch base api (specifically the .net one) and found solutions to all of our app requirements except one, and we describe the scenario:</p> <ol> <li>Let's say we have order of 1,000,000 users around the world, with their location specified by longitude and latitude;</li> <li>We have a user circle range c: it's location (specified by longitude and latitude) and a radius rc</li> <li>We want to efficiently determine which of the users are in the circle.</li> </ol> <p>If we write it in sql server as we did now it's something like this:</p> <pre><code>CREATE TABLE UserLocations [UserId] [bigint] NOT NULL, [CurrentLocation] [geography] NOT NULL ALTER PROCEDURE sp_GetCurrentUsersInRange @userPoint geography, @RangeInMeters int AS BEGIN select UserId from UserLocations where @userPoint.STDistance(CurrentLocation) &lt;= @RangeInMeters and UserId &lt;&gt; @userId END </code></pre> <p>But this is NoSQL, there are only keys (such as longitude key and latitude key), but we can’t fetch all the values and query them all in memory , can't we?</p> <p>So the question to you is: Is there a way you know how to accomplish such thing in NoSQL?</p> <p>Thank you</p> <p>p.s. our related question in Stackoverflow: <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/10211579/how-to-determine-n-locations-inside-a-circle-efficiently">How to determine n locations inside a circle efficiently?</a></p> <p>EDIT: Couchbase support had answered me! their answer as quoted:</p> <p><em>"Our geo-spatial indexing is a feature being debuted in 2.0 (scheduled out later this year) as experimental and will move to fully supported in a later release. We are also in the process of building the necessary client-side interfaces for it, but there is nothing available at the moment. Lastly, the distance and bounding circle (among others) are features that we will develop as we move forward."</em></p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
