Tue, 13 October 2009 Chariot's Eric Snyder works in both Java, Spring-based applications as well as with dynamic platforms such as Ruby on Rails. He brought CouchDB to our attention earlier this year, and we thought we'd share some information about it with our listeners.

It can be used either directly using RESTful mechanisms or via a wrapper API in a number of languages.Resources:
