As a client application, I want a datastore that is accessible via a RESTful interface

Given the modular nature of the application and the convenience of JSON based data storage in a RESTful environment, we have decided that we will go with a schemaless, JSON (or, more appropriately, BSON) database for our default backend. The decision to use MongoDB is motivated by the fact that it scales well, runs on a Raspberry Pi, is free, and has no embedded alternative (I looked; nothing seems to be really feasable yet). That said, Atlanta is modular; alternatives are welcome.

Our current tasks are:

• [ ] Install MongoDB and pymongo
• [ ] Get a RESTful interface available in Atlanta through a module

Really inclined towards Eve. It is Flask-based (which is what I am already using) and support MongoDB. The question is going to be whether it boxes us into anything.
