The Compute Module is a Raspberry Pi in a more flexible form factor, intended for industrial application.
The Compute Module contains the main parts of a Raspberry Pi (the BCM2835 processor and 512MB RAM) as well as a 4GB eMMC Flash device (which is the equivalent of the SD card in the Pi).
This is all integrated on to a small 67.6 x 31mm board which fits into a standard DDR2 SODIMM connector. The Flash memory is connected directly to the processor on the board, but the remaining processor interfaces are available to the user via the connector pins. You get the full flexibility of the BCM2835 SoC (which means that many more GPIOs and interfaces are available as compared to the Raspberry Pi), and designing the Module into a custom system should be relatively straightforward as we've put all the tricky bits onto the Module itself.
