  • Question

  • Hi,

    I am working  on an application on windows 8.1 using C# and XAML in visual studio 2013.

    My idea required cloud database  that contains images and tables.........,to let  people see the updated images in the database.

    I do not want to use windows azure.

    My Question:
    Is  Couchdb can help me to save my updated data (on cloud), and return them to any user requesting them by C# ?
    If it yes.....
    Which are the libraries I need them and how I can using(import) them in my app code.

    I appreciate your time reviewing my application.
    Thank you very much.

  • I'm not familiar with CouchDB and do not know if it will work for your scenario. You will need to ask the CouchDB developers or users for help with it.

    That said, if you're using it in your web service and not directly in your app then it doesn't need to be compatible with Windows Store apps. It doesn't matter how the web service is implemented, so long as it supports standard interfaces such as REST.

  • Hi GhadaNaim,

    You'll have to talk to the CouchDB devs for information about CouchDB.

  • Hi Rob,
    I am new in this field,after my searching about free cloud database I found it.
    And I care it because it has libraries for c#.
    I don't know Is it good or  not, Is it can help me in my situation that explained in the first message or not,Is it compatable with visual studio 2013 or not.

    I am asking to Know, If it is possible.

    By the way, I wouldn't use Windows Azure, because it is expensive to me.

  • I'm not aware of any free cloud databases and cannot provide any recommendations beyond a web search. Sorry.
