2600hz.org has done allot of work on freeswitch and couchdb in their whistle project. might be of interest to take a look into it On 9/13/11, Chad Phillips -- Apartment Lines <chad@apartmentlines.com> wrote:

For those interested in connecting to CouchDB (http://couchdb.apache.org) from FreeSWITCH, I've written a Lua API (http://www.lua.org) for it, available here:

With Lua being the recommended scripting language for FreeSWITCH, this seems an excellent way to work with Couch.

For those that have the LuaRocks package manager installed, it's a simple 'luarocks install luchia' to install.

I'm interested in exploring CouchDB as the datastore for a distributed, fault tolerant voicemail system -- I think it's attachment feature and bi-directional synchronization are well suited for the task.
