We can perform most SQL operations in views also. We only need to change the way we visualize data extraction from the database using SQL and think in terms of the map and reduce functions. Here, we will see how to incorporate SQL queries into the MapReduce format.
Any fields or attributes selection for a document from a bucket can be performed by adding it to the emitted key or the value of the map
