> In my own non-marketing speak: Couchbase Lite is an open-source framework for iOS and OS X (and Android and soon .NET) that provides a JSON-based local database engine with really advanced data sync / replication capabilities. It lets you store all the relevant data locally, so your app can work while offline, then sync changes to/from a server when the network’s available. The server-side component supports databases shared between any number of users so you can build multi-user and social apps. The sync protocols are REST-based and open, and interoperate with CouchDB and Cloudant.
