I'm looking at using CouchDB as a backend of an ASP.NET web API/web app which uses JSON heavily.

I'm interested in the pros and cons in terms of:

  • replication
  • platform dependency (currently all our servers are Windows 2003)
  • ease of use (are there .NET libraries around?)

The application is not very transaction-intensive, probably about 100-200 CRUDs an hour.

There is a little comparism of CouchDB with other NoSQL databases. Here you'll find a practical experience report comparing MongoDB and CouchDB. And you might also have a look into this article from a web developer perspective. (Maybe they are all a little outdated.)

You might be interested in couchbrowse (SharpCouch) and Ottoman, too.

Replication :Its really easy to configure the replication and mark for replication in couchDB.

Platform dependency : I tried setup-couchdb-1.2.0_otp_R15B.exe on Windows 2003 x86 SP2 and succeeded.

Library : You can try LoveSeat/DreamSeat .Net client
