Connecting up your
     choice language takes about an hour.
   - Offline replication and database streaming, standardized at the
     protocol level, which allows you to use various combinations of
     CouchDB, Couchbase, Coucbase Lite, and PouchDB without interop
     problems. Plus, it means in the early part of an app (like the 0.X
     bit), I can trivially replicate the prod DB down when I&amp;#x27;m trying
     to repro something.
   - You can store your HTTP assets right alongside the DB for 
     Firebase-like asset hosting. Throw it behind a caching service
     for prod if you want.
   - You can store full-blown files, which is great for lots of practical
     app these days.
   - Trivial replication. The scaling of CouchDB itself is honestly a
     bit crappy, but Couchbase has great scaling, and since they speak
     the same protocol, you can easily scale from CouchDB to Couchbase
     without missing a beat.
&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;
CouchDB is actually my favorite &amp;quot;I just wanna hack something&amp;quot; database for the above reasons. No, I have not and do not know if I&amp;#x27;d seriously recommend using CouchDB 1.6 in prod for something you expected to grow huge, but it&amp;#x27;s a great &amp;quot;get it done&amp;quot; platform like Parse or Firebase, and you can really trivially move to Couchbase as you scale up if you need to.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Kinto by Mozilla – An open-source Parse alternative</title><url>https://github.com/Kinto/kinto/</url></story>
