Can I perform complex queries using Parse? (parse.com)

I come from a relational database platform (Oracle) and from my understanding parse is a NoSQL database. Is it possible to perform complex queries such as join between two or more tables, sum/groupby etc? (RDBMS stuff)

If it is possible I'd be happy to get some example from you.

I'm using parse for Android application.

Parse is great for simple apps. However, you have to write logic to construct a query in thr app. Incredibly difficult, time consuming and error prone. I'm a big fan of parse, but I avoid it for anything complex

Some of the NoSQL database provide built in functionality like couchdb offers SUM, COUNT and Stats.

Check out the link. https://wiki.apache.org/couchdb/Built-In_Reduce_Functions.

To perform these queries in Oracle Nosql, you need to write logic in java. These have some limitation like If you use Key/Value ApI and JSON format, you will not be able to these. May be these are possible in TableApI Using java.
