M-A-O-L

The folks behind Object DB CouchDB released version 1.0, marking an important milestone for the still new DB.

• Speed — writes are 300% faster for large documents, compared to the previous release;
• Microsoft Windows support;
• Authentication system — write CouchApps without having to create a user model;
• Replicator options — flexibility to use replication to build custom systems.

I like that CouchIO, the commercial arm behind CouchDB, is offering free hosting, so everybody can try it out, no questions asked.

MyNoSQL also has some coverage.
