It's not just a good thing, it's a central element of the design. CouchDB is just a ReST based service and ReST servers mediate access to web resources.
- moe 17y agoReST makes sense for public APIs. It's a highly inefficient approach for a database that is only accessed over internal links by your application. And no, you don't want to let the general public connect directly to your database. CouchApp is the most idiotic idea I've read about in a while.
