About

Amazon DynamoDB is a serverless, NoSQL, fully managed database service that supports key-value and document data models.

Apache CouchDB is an open-source, document-oriented NoSQL database that stores data as JSON documents and exposes a RESTful HTTP API for application access.

It features multi-version concurrency control, masterless replication with bi-directional sync, automatic conflict detection, map-reduce views for indexing and queries, pluggable storage engines, and supports clustering with horizontal scaling across multiple nodes.
