Using couchbase in e-commerce inventory management system

  • July 22, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I used couchbase to store and retrieve inventory related data for an e-commerce website.

Couchbase provides a robust SDK for multi platform integration. All we did was to build a wrapper layer around it and integrated with our inventory API. Ease of use and solid documentation played a vital part in the success of the integration.

I also liked their dashboard where a lot of server health related metrics were updated in realtime. I also liked the ability to search and view the stored documents from the dashboard.
What do you dislike about the product?
Documents search feature can be improved like adding advanced search options which can improve the entire search user experience
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We used couchbase to improve the overall user experience in the e-commerce website by maintaining inventory data. Couchbase was much faster and was able to handle a lot of load than a traditional relational SQL database which was a huge benefit.

One Platform to Rule Them All

  • May 30, 2020

What do you like best about the product?
I am using Couchbase as the main database of my current project. But great thing is that when it comes to storing temporary or using cache-based database, I don't have to use another solution, Couchbase have already the memcached solution. Using the memcache style buckets provided by Couchbase was much more efficient and flexible than memcached.

Another amazing feature which I get is, I don't need to store data in another storage for implementing elastic sesrch. which is very convenient for the development purposes. It also has some languages support which exactly I needed for the Full Text Search implementation.

The cross data center replication allows me to keep the system running all the time by configuring replication and data is always available.

I didn't need to learn another quey language, cause the N1QL is so much like MySQL and PostgreSQL which were my previous skills.

Making Ad-hoc queries using the analytics service was very flexible, specially as it is possible to run on separate nodes in a cluster.
What do you dislike about the product?
Basically there is nothing I dislike about Couchbase. But for the first time it was hard for me to setup channel filter. But its easier now.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am using extensively Couchbase buckets for storing and reading geo spatial data which is the main feature of the system I am developing. And I can use the geo spatial queries provided by the Couchbase.

Also, I didn't have to use the Elastic sesrch and store data again there. I just used the already-there FTS aka Full Text Search feature in Couchbase.

I didn't have to use Redis because Couchbase is giving me plain-old-memcached mode, which is awesome!

When it was about deployment, process was easier and I had help from the Couchbase support team, a great relief.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
When you can get the sweet taste of NoSQL in accordance with Full-Text Search and Memcached in one place, definitely Couchbase is your hero.

Ensuring data integrity and availability with the XDCR, things are awesome and smooth.

When you are an enterprise user of Couchbase, you will have great support from the team starting from before purchasing the enterprise solution.

One important thing, take the free and/or paid tutorial provided by Couchbase which is helpful while designing the system and data structure.

Scalable apps database without hassle

  • May 03, 2016
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Couchbase is a good alternative to No SQL database management, it open a way to your scalable application without hassle. Very intuitive GUI make view statistic, administration, managing cluster very easy just one click like installing software and couch base manages all your need in background. So basically you were free from managing bucket and what node they live on.
Last thing is couchbase is available for public for free , but depends on what your use case.
What do you dislike about the product?
Documentation. Couchbase has a lot of good features and automation, but aside from that it lacks of documentation of their SDK. The community is big but the forum is quiet, a lot of post and small answer.
Their security about user control also is lacking, Couchbase should give a user manager for user that can access a document,
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use couchbase to storing my user sessions data, event data and also a configuration data. Its very good
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are okay with some security reason, like user's document access and you seek perfect tools automation, Couchbase is your best shot, it can give you a simple install for each nodes.

Great Image of a good product

The product ist great. The image is easy to install. For everybody who is wondering about what to use for login:
Administrator // Password is your instance ID.

On a m1.xlarge Instance I was able to achieve around 15-20k ops / second but no more. Looks like the virtual environement of EC2 costs performance, because I get more on my own root server (around 32k ops/second).
