Interesting. I agree with you when you say what makes Couch interesting is its sync (mobile or not) features. There are lots of DBs out there that focus on scale and not enough on sync.
If they want to win the mobile market though, they will have to re-implement the DB in C. Erlang was a good choice on the server but in the current mobile ecosystem it's clearly a drawback.
- jchrisa 15y agoWe have TouchDB, written in ObjC, still in early development, but it syncs with CouchDB and has a 100ms startup time. iOS TouchDB: https://github.com/couchbaselabs/TouchDB-iOS https://github.com/couchbaselabs/TouchDB-iOS We are also exploring TouchDB on Android.

- henchan 15y agoSo, JChris is at Couchbase and developing on a mobile project that synchs with CouchDB. Yet the flagship product at Couchbase cannot do so. I wonder whether Couchbase is planned to synch with CouchDB in subsequent versions?
