Zend Framework: Zend_Db_Document Component Proposal

Table of Contents

1. Overview

Zend_Db_Document implements abstract interface to nosql storages.

2. References

• MongoDB
• CouchDB
• Riak
• Redis
• ProjectVoldemort

• NoSQL patterns
• NoSQL application development
• Google Map-Reduce

• GitHub project Zend\Database\Document

3. Component Requirements, Constraints, and Acceptance Criteria

Currently Zend haven't got any adapters to NOSQL storages, but a lot of real application is needed this. Cause NOSQL stoges is more flexible than SQL RDMS, and provide to build a most powerful and performance application.

• This component will provide adapters to NOSQL stores
• This component will provide get/set operation
• This component will provide update/save document operation
• This component will provide MapRecude query interface
• This component will provide Document object (similar to Zend_Db_Table_Row_Abstract)

• This component will provide transformation adapters to support Zend_Db_Table

4. Dependencies on Other Framework Components

• Zend_Json
• Zend_Http_Client
• Zend_Protobuff

5. Theory of Operation

The primary goal of this component is provide abstract interface to NoSQL storages, witch provide functional by get/set, search, map-reduce queries and very easy interface to update/save/validate document to storage. To do this, we must take several factors into account:

• Transform output result set to array
• Query languages are usually JavaScript, and How exactly build queries the most interesting is map-reduce queries. Cause for simple queries we can develop interface similar to Zend_Db_Select , witch current Adapter will transform into himself query language.
• It must provide full interface to direct queries
• In the first step adapter will provide simple interface get/set by key and direct interface for query.
• Version of documents (in general storages return system field _rev for revision and _id for UID of document)

• Integration with exist Zend_Db_Table
• Integration validation document structure

6. Milestones / Tasks

The first implement most popular nosql storages MongoDB/CouchDB and later all exists.

• Milestone 1: create abstract classes storages and document
• Milestone 2: build base functionality get/set by key
• Milestone 3: integrate query builder
• Milestone 4: integrate query builder for map reduce
• Milestone 5: do new adapters and go to Milestone 1 .

7. Class Index
