Overall Review Sentiment for Couchbase

Easy to get started. We can query over the DB using N1QL that is very similar to SQL so doesn't need extra knowledge to get started. UI is very clear and easy to understand. Indexing is easy to implement and see all the available indices and while running the queries also we can see which index got picked up. Loved this option. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I was using it with Spring Webflux that is reactive, so while processing data parallely the load on couchbase goes very high and operations start failing. Would love to see some inbuilt support on this to handle traffic properly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I liked the ease of use alot, the NoSQL setup was done very well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Adding authorized users was a bit of a challenge however my team figured it out after some poking around. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It's pretty fast, indexing and all can be done with just one line and it makes the queries execute 100 times faster. And the best thing I find is the documentation, many times I come across a new usecase and am unable to implement then I look for that in the documentation and find all the answers to all the usecase I had.
Doesn't perform well when data increases, lot of times I get ambiguous timeout exceptions.
Couchbase UI is also very easy to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Please make it efficient when dealing with large data. By large I mean at least with 50k records it should perform well.
Not dislike but one improvement I would suggest is -
Give a builtin mechanism to handle concurrent updates to a document in db. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
- KV Lookups Performance
- Support for nested document JSON operations
- Comprehensive Web console with useful metrics Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
- Frequent breaking changes on the SDK
- Server upgrades often lead to downtime as the client needs to reconnect
- .NET is poorly served in general, the documentation should be improved Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It is very simple and has no complex configuration. It stores data in different buckets, similar to tables in RDBMS. It provides bucket to bucket sync or cluster level to diff cluster level sync using XDCR, which helps in syncing or moving data. As it saves data in JSON format, it's really easy to structure data in couchbase. It works on the N1ql query and provides suggestions for index too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I dislike, its response time, we faced lots of issues in reducing the query time, even though we have created all the necessary indexes, still, the response time was high. Another thing where we faced an issue was in eventing functionality, as the proper log is not displayed on UI, it's difficult to understand for which document the eventing worked or not.

Horizontal scalability. Good support. N1QL. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Subscription Cost. Lack of guarantee of backward compatibility. Lack of enough documentation to troubleshoot, especially reading logs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It's super performant and very reliable. There is a DCP (database change protocol) which can be used to react to mutations. This is very useful for any streaming use cases including integrations Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
No materialised views. No out of the box odbc or jdbc connectors. You have to buy these from 3rd party vendors at high prices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The modular architecture of couchbase, mobile sync, query capabilities of JSON documents and performance of couchbase database. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
not much. Finding people with good couchbase experience is an issue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
* read and write data performance;
* data JSON format;
* easy N1QL query language;
* replication provides great data resiliency;
* user-friendly interface. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
* Couchbase is self-hosted, and as such, it required internal DevOps resources to maintain;
* Couchbase can not be used without proper knowledge and practice, so new users have to learn first;
* Couchbase has less community support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
