CouchDB and Datomic are the only databases that I know about that have built-in versioning. Would love to hear about others that do too!


MVCC is not versioning and you can not rely on CouchDB's MVCC functionality to provide versioning.

Datomic on the other hand does claim to provide "rewindability".


Ah, Ok, I stand corrected. I only used CouchDB very very briefly some years ago and was under the illusion that its document version numbering could be used to keep track of document changes. I didn't realise it was purely for MVCC purposes.

Yes, Datomic advertises that it keeps track of a documents history.
