A different breed NoSQL is gaining some recent interest among the developers here. (I=92m a humble front-end guy :) I=92m very interested to get some experienced perspective on these articles comparing between RavenDB and CouchDB: http://codeofrob.com/archive/2010/05/31/ravendb-whats-the-difference.aspx A cursory dig suggests CouchDB is more mature, with a larger community to support it. That aside, what do you consider to be the significant differences? Either way I=92m happy to see some ground broken in this direction. If Raven doesn=92t turn out to be the right solution, will it at least serve as a solid gateway drug to the world of NoSQL? Cheers Ollie
