Mappings from R to database types

Open richfitz opened this issue 9 years ago • 1 comments

Obvious first candidate for support is data.frame, but could use some support for non-data.frame like indexable structures (i.e., lists) and nested lists (access like graphs).

So we have a plain english version of what each DB is doing, in the language of each DB

data.frame's

  • couchdb: for each data.frame, create new database, store each row in separate document
  • etcd: for each data.frame, create new directory, store each row in separate key
  • elasticsearch: for each data.frame, create new index, with type of same name, store each row in separate document
