"Generally, we find MongoDB to be a very good fit for building web infrastructure."

I strongly agree. I just went through a painful transition of our product from CouchDB onto MongoDB. It was a week or two of pain, but I had things isolated enough that it didn't hurt as badly as it could have.

Fundamentally, Couch was a pretty amazing piece of technology, and Damien Katz is coder's coder. But they want to make something that would act like a Lotus Notes client. I wanted a piece of web infrastructure.
