June 14, 12 Structure aware: it knows how to index fields in JSON, XML, and Erlang terms, besides plain text That it only indexes on save means that if you have to re-index, it has to scan each value
Favorite Thursday, June 14, 12 You can (and for my HIPAA-sensitive project, we do) index at-rest encrypted data this way One re-indexing caveat: you have to re-specify indexes when you update a record

14, 12 Let’s start with a zombie-themed example. There’s a bunch of brains wandering around, they get eaten by zombies. We want to easily query a few things about them.
eaten_at size Brains Thursday, June 14, 12 We want to find a given brain by owner (i.e. who got their brain eaten), the zombie that ate it, find what brains a zombie ate where, find what brains a zombie ate on a given day, and what days a given hideout gets raided on.

If we wanted to group by zombie_key, these would be fine
