I'm not sure how you are backing up this assertion (citation?). We have
customers storing terabytes of data with billions of records (using
LevelDB). SQLite as the storage engine does not necessarily make Couchbase
more stable or battle-tested, just better known among the wider community.
On the other hand, we have spent the last eighteen months, in collaboration
with the original authors at Google, hardening and improving the
performance of LevelDB to support large deployments, and it now performs
very well (although we still can do better).

I'm not saying that the OP should not consider Couchbase, but either
product is going to require more than just a casual knowledge of ops to
deploy, manage and maintain. Clustered datastores are not for the
faint-of-heart, so if the OP can do it in a local SQL database, then he
should.
