Document database with seamless multi-master sync

About Apache CouchDB

A document-oriented NoSQL database using JSON, JavaScript views and HTTP APIs, known for its append-only storage and multi-master replication designed for reliability and offline sync. It is free and open source, so teams can self-host it, inspect the code and adapt it to their own infrastructure without licence fees or vendor lock-in. Typical users run it alongside existing workflows to cut manual effort, improve visibility and keep full control over data, configuration and upgrades over time.
