Easy to setup, flexible and highly available. All you need to do is relax on the CouchDB

As a highly distributed database system, CouchDB naturally has strong high availability with traffic load-balancing capability. It is also easy to scale and replicate data in a cluster for redundancy. However, there is still some room for query performance improvement in the future.

CouchDB has no renewals because it's free, and I have no reason to stop using it.

Because our current solution S3 is working great and CouchDB was a nightmare. The worst is that at first, it seemed fine until we filled it with tons of data and then started to create views and actually delete.

Truly love the direction and road map for CouchDB. We see the trend is once people make the switch to CouchDB they don't go back. We feel this will become as popular and as widely used as MySQL.

We're stuck with it by now - an upgrade to a different NoSQL or SQL database solution will be a MAJOR effort.

On my current project, there isn't a need for the problem set that couchDB solves but if in the future there is, then I'll surely renew my interest/use of CouchDB.
