About this Guided Project
IBM Cloudant is a document database that uses a JSON document store. This schemaless database is useful for operations powered by unstructured data such as big data analytics and artificial intelligence.

In this guided project, you will work with database operations from the IBM Cloudant dashboard. After inserting documents containing real estate data, you will perform key operations including creating and adding documents to the database, making updates in a document, and running queries to filter and sort data.

This guided project will prepare you for performing advanced database management operations in Not only SQL (NoSQL) document database systems.

A Look at the Project Ahead
Once you have completed this project, you'll be able to:
  • Create a database through the Cloudant dashboard
  • Insert documents into your database to populate it
  • Query documents with specific criteria
  • Modify documents by updating and deleting them

What You’ll Need
Just a web browser and an IBM Cloud account!

Everything else is provided to you on IBM Cloud, where you will have access to the Cloudant service through your browser.
