couchdb 自动生成html,json - Using CouchDB to serve HTML - Stack Overflow

There are huge advantages to having CouchDB serve/generate your HTML.

For one thing, the pages (which are HTTP resources) are tied to the data or to the queries on the data and CouchDB knows when to update the etag when the page has changed. This means that if you stick nginx in front of CouchDB and say "cache stuff" you get all the free caching you would normally need to build yourself.

I would push for nginx > apache in front of CouchDB because Apache isn't all that great at handling concurrent connections and nginx + erlang (CouchDB) are great at it.

Also, you can write these views in JavaScript which are documented well in the CouchDB book http://books.couchdb.org/relax/ or in Python using my view server http://github.com/mikeal/couchdb-pythonviews which isn't really documented at all yet but I'll be getting to it soon :)

I hope that view servers in other languages start implementing the new features in the view server protocol as well so that anyone can write standalone apps in CouchDB.
