High performance, high reliability
What do you like best about the product?
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
What do you dislike about the product?
No materialised views. No out of the box odbc or jdbc connectors. You have to buy these from 3rd party vendors at high prices.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use it for a wide range of operational systems which serve front end and back end applications. There is no tolerance for lost data and we read and write at massive scale. We persist everything to disk and maintain around 90% of keys in memory for fast access.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Look at the analytics and eventing modules. They are very powerful
Couchbase is a perfect fit for our requirements
What do you like best about the product?
The modular architecture of couchbase, mobile sync, query capabilities of JSON documents and performance of couchbase database.
What do you dislike about the product?
not much. Finding people with good couchbase experience is an issue.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
we use couchbase as our transactional database for a complex system. All of our APIs run on top of couchbase DB.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If your use case is for a fast document based database which needs to be queried, this is a database for you. It also has mobile sync capability.
Decent Database for JSON data
What do you like best about the product?
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.
What do you dislike about the product?
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.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have built a consumer app, where users create documents, which we save in couchbase DB, and further, read it back when requires. It helped us in creating the app quickly, as it is very easy to start working on couchbase. They also provide a cloud version of couchbase, which is easy to configure.
Pretty fast and easy to learn
What do you like best about the product?
Service layer separation, easy to start, simple administration.
What do you dislike about the product?
Support engagement and their knowledge needs some improvements
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Multiple layer of process in developing using traditional RDBMs.
Couchbase Server has a user friendly UI and all it needs is a basic knowledge of SQL query.
What do you like best about the product?
I loved Couchbase because :
1. We can query it using SQL queries.
2. Monitoring is quite easy as we have Dashboard which and Statistics section which gives a good knowledge of the CPU utilisation.
3. Query monitor is another great tool which tells which query is faking most of the CPU time.Hence developer can use this tool to know which query is problematic and focus on fixing the same.
4. Index creation is easy and simple. We have Indexes , where we can view all the created indexes. We can also use Statistics section to know which Index is getting used and which is not.
5. The Bucket section provides all necessary information like which bucket has how many documents.
6. Statistics/Server section is very helpful as it can gives us the insight of how many ops/sec a bucket is receiving.
7. Now we have Query Advisor , which gives advise us on what index is more appropriate for a query. This saves a lot of CPU memory.
8. Document insertion , deletion and updation is easy as we have UI for it.
9. Query execution section provides all information for monitoring like query execution time, indexes used , document affected etc.

What do you dislike about the product?
1. We cannot create more than 10 buckets.
2. If there is no Index created on a bucket, the queries on bucket would return empty response rather than user friendly messages describing root cause.
3. Buckets having huge documents takes time to query and usually times out.

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.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is slow when we talk about performance compared to peers. The UI is also slow while loading pages.
What problems is the product 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.
