I want to point out that Oracle Database Mobile Server also makes the data available offline, that's what it's designed to do. In addition to syncing your mobile database, it also offers device mgmt. For more info:

I've not used the Couchbase solution, but I do know some of the team over there, and they seem like very smart people.

What it comes down to: if you want/need an Oracle backend, then you should use Oracle Database Mobile Server. If you want to experiment with NoSQL, then Couchbase would be the way to go.

My vote would be for CouchDB.. The reason being, as NoSQL, it has good number of advantages. More than anything, you can make the user's data available offline.

Just in case you want further info on usage of CouchDB, I would like to request/suggest you to go through this, this and this.
