I have a reasonably simple a reasonably system that are conceptually 100,000’s of small/simple JSON documents. I want to switch from mysql to a distributed system for redundancy and backup purposes.
Its currently written in java. What will be the simplest/easiest nosql solution to install and use? i.e. I want something I can just install on a few servers, point to each other, and start using.
I don’t want to spend hours learning, tweaking and configuring stuff. (If its going to be too large a project I may as well just write some java code that synchronizes the relevant tables)
mongoDB is easy to install and start to use document database for me.
It is easy to make it work with java and it has a nice mapper from java objects to mongo called morphia.
