It is a great complement to SQLite, and is a better choice when your application is web based. The builtin types are pretty much the same as SQLite but views written in Javascript can then turn the data into anything. It has a larger footprint (10-20MB). What it excels at is "offline mode" and synchronization having been designed in from the start - this is the better solution for those who keep trying to bolt on that kind of thing to SQLite. It also scales up very well (across machines) and with builtin map/reduce. It is starting to be used as an alternative to SQLite in places - for example the next Ubuntu release will store contacts/bookmarks etc in CouchDB because of the ability to synchronize, replicate and work offline.
