Experimenting with a bunch of VMs and CouchDB for
scalable, replicated filesystem purposes.

I like the way it stores any object as a 'document' in its database, doesn't depend on another
database backend like MogileFS seems to.

I'm slightly wary of the fact that the replication isn't built as part of the daemon's
responsibility automatically on the fly, by way of which you could control via the config ini
file. Instead replication is a manually executed process either via the web interface or via
curl commands that one could at least build into bash scripts... and maybe via the API i.e it
could be done in the app itself that is pushing files up into the database?

Not sure if that's a good feature or not yet.. also the fact that it's uni-directional
replication, making it not so easy to get a master-master HA solution happening.. you can
replicate both ways but what happens when conflict occurs (and they seem to)..

Watch this space!
