Data Modeling

JamDB is non-relational. A document is any JSON object with a string identifier that lives in a collection.

Strings, numbers, and arrays are all valid JSON but the root of a document must be a JSON object.

Your data model is up to you. You can use IDs to create pseudo-relationships.
