The practices covered can be directly applied to most any application structure that demands the reliability and stability that users have come to expect and demand.

Through Satchel teams and individuals can organize information, events and tasks in a well-structured and efficient environment. It utilizes modern technologies like CouchDB and Amazon's S3 service to create a scalable and reliable web service that can be expanded and grown.
