What CouchDB does well

CouchDB stores data as self-contained JSON documents rather than rows in tables. Each document can have a different shape, which suits applications where records vary in structure. The built-in HTTP REST API means you can query and update data from any HTTP client without a dedicated driver. CouchDB also handles replication across nodes or to mobile clients, which is useful for apps that need to work offline and sync later. It is commonly used in mobile apps, collaborative editing tools, and content management systems.
