CouchDB is a document-oriented database that is built for the web, open source, and written in Erlang. It has no schema, uses HTTP as its protocol, supports eventual consistency through multiversion concurrency control, and models transactions through documents. CouchDB is designed for crash-only recovery, allows for automated replication between distributed nodes, and enables long-polling queries through requests that can remain open indefinitely.

- 9. No immediate consistency ”Stale” views, but multiversion concurrency control
- 10. No transactions A transaction is modelled with a document
- 11. Other coolness Crash-only design If you want to shutdown CouchDB, you must kill it. Distribution: even master-master Conflict resolutions, automated replication between nodes Long-polling queries A request for changes can be left open forever
