From: Der Engel To: user@couchdb.apache.org Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary=f46d043c08649e321d04f68c6308 X-Virus-Checked: Checked by ClamAV on apache.org --f46d043c08649e321d04f68c6308 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Hi, I'm a newbie trying to write his first real web application, couchdb has interested me because of its http api and the thing that the data model/structure of data of the app would probably be changing over time. The webapp is going to be a invoicing software for certain niche, so I guess I probably need a DB were transactions are reliable and data integrity is very good. I don't intend to run a cluster at first, but it may become a necessity later on. Would CouchDB be a good fit for this kind of application? Thanks, Der --f46d043c08649e321d04f68c6308--
