What is their revenue model?

  Build database, sell support. Like any other open-source DB. Or Riak, for instance, charges for site-to-site replication. Generally if you have an open-source project many people are using, you can make money with it.

    RavenDb actually sells the actual product so you need to pay every month for it.
