Apache CouchDB, commonly referred to as CouchDB, is an open source document-oriented database written mostly in the Erlangprogramming language. It is part of the NoSQL group of data stores and is designed for local replication and to scale horizontally across a wide range of devices. 


CouchDB is supported by commercial enterprises Couchbase and Cloudant.
CouchDB provides a RESTful JSON API than can be accessed from any environment that allows HTTP requests. There are myriad third-party client libraries that make this even easier from your programming language of choice. CouchDB’s built in Web administration console speaks directly to the database using HTTP requests issued from your browser.
The CouchDB server processes the HTTP request, it returns a response in JSON as the following:
