What do you dislike about Couchbase?

I guess we need better performance for JOIN operators with huge volume of data. Couchbase is not known for Relational aspects but lot of business demand some relational data set . would be great fit if performance is fast enough Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Couchbase:

Sure I will recommend NOSQL solution wherever Couchbase is best fit for Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We user Couchbase to save user profiling information . The mutation , fetch through standard Python SDK is superfast .

What do you like best about Couchbase?

Couchbase Server makes continuous delivery of microservices in the cloud very easy with its schemaless approach to JSON data. For most cases, it's as simple as just deploying a new microservice version, no DDL changes required at all prior to deployment. We're also very excited about the forthcoming scopes/collections feature and how that may help us more easily ensure data separation between microservices.

Couchbase's memory-first architecture flat cluster topology also deliver on performance, especially for transactional data with significant mutation rates.

The N1QL query language is great to work with because it's so SQL-like, and much easier for developers to learn and reason about than other NoSQL platforms while also being more feature-rich.

On the IT operations side, managing the cluster itself is made incredibly easy using Couchbase Cloud or the Autonomous Operator for Kubernetes. The architecture itself also makes things easier, with auto sharding and no need to configure read-replicas. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Couchbase?

The full-text search system is great for small-scale operations, but is still a somewhat young product offering. In some cases, use of a separate system like Elasticsearch is warranted. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Couchbase:

When implementing a Couchbase Server proof-of-concept, the learning curve can be slightly steep compared to more traditional RDBMS systems. However, the curve is typically less steep with Couchbase than with other NoSQL platforms. There is a great community online on their forums and Gitter that can help with any questions during a proof-of-concept phase. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Couchbase solving and how is that benefiting you?

Couchbase has allowed us to operate at scale with low-to-zero downtime for maintenance in a continuous delivery microservices architecture. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Its Easy to use, work as expected and does not require very less regular maintenance and checks.

Moreover the new UI is good and increased observability of the product which really help .

I also admired that their kafka connector are very robust and they have handled many boundary scenario when it comes to consistency.

They also innovate fast and i am looking forward for new features around transactions and multi-tenancy . Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Couchbase?

Documentation, I wished the documentation can have more in depth . Sometimes i had to reach to the customer support to ask about behavior of some common scenarios like failover and cas values . I wished that kind of documentation will really help . Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Couchbase:

I would really suggest couchbase if your application is mission critical and require consistency .Further its easy to use and should be hassle free experience to integrate . Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Couchbase solving and how is that benefiting you?

Couchbase is primary NoSQL database of Mindtickle and used for almost all major core application for NoSQL store as well as for Caching frequent docs to improve latencies in core applications .

Our primary use case was a consistent KV store, which should have consistent lower latency for single/bulk CRUD calls, intelligent client and have stable kafka/kinesis connector available for CDC. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Couchbase?

The UI which I feel is a cherry on cake. It gives a nice view and couchbase becomes easy to use. The sdk also is easy to use and integrate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Couchbase?

It is slow when we talk about performance compared to peers. The UI is also slow while loading pages. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Couchbase solving and how is that benefiting you?

We used it for caching the data. Millions of records and it did pretty well. The retrieval latency was good. We used couchbase because we already had a license for some othrr use cases. And it was really good choice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Couchbase?

We've been using Couchbase along with a multi-tier CRM backend for hundreds of our customers and never had a headache with it: simple to configure, easy-to-use CLI and clear documentation makes it a valuable part of our backend system.

It is low enough on VM resources consumption and single instance handles a few backend environments, seemlessly.

It is also easy to work with Couchbase in local environments: both linux and windows distributions are available.

I can definately recommend this tool as a cache service for your products: self-hosted or in the cloud. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Couchbase?

There is not much to say about the disadvantages of it. Maintenance and deployment are easy, experience was good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Couchbase solving and how is that benefiting you?

It is a cache server for user login session tokens and some static content. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It would be great to have more certifications on their side, so we can have more developers that we can be sure that have more knowledge of the platform. Right now, is more hit-or-miss with developers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Couchbase:

Consider Couchbase when you need a document-based noSQL Server. It is recommended highly above MongoDB, because of support, ease of use, and great flexibility and tools. Finding developers that know about the platform could be a little difficult, but it is very easy to learn. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Couchbase solving and how is that benefiting you?

We have used it for our internal developments, for Product Catalog developments, and some time-series database solutions. The benefits are the flexibility and support for the platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
