N1QL is the document query language specifically designed for querying data in Couchbase Server, offering a SQL-like querying experience for JSON documents without the need for pre-built views. As an integrated part of Couchbase Server 4, N1QL combines the flexibility of JSON with the power of SQL, making it accessible for those familiar with SQL while introducing new features tailored for JSON document manipulation. The learning curve is modest due to its SQL-inspired syntax, with key differences mainly in added keywords and JSON-specific functions. To aid learning, sample queries based on the "travel-sample" data set that comes with Couchbase Server 4 Beta are provided, allowing learners to experiment and modify queries on their own systems. The author encourages community involvement for expanding the sample set and offers a link to the full N1QL language reference for further exploration.
