I have worked with Couchbase extensively for several projects as a primary Database.

What do you like best about the product?
Analytics Engine, Query Indexing,Full text search, Scalability, Reliability, Faster development, easy deployment, cluster management, Easy migration.
What do you dislike about the product?
Bucket Limitation per cluster. Slow for large datasets. Memory expensive
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are developing a social networking site and for that we are using couchbase to be performed as an entity database along with Neo4j which is responsible for handling our graph services. As a social networking site we have to index so many different entity type along with the queries for each entities which was a very helpful as we were not getting an efficient query indexing engine along with any other dbms thats number one and the couchbase analytics engine made our task easier to monitor and analyze database cluster.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would say to spend more time with the data modeling techniques because even if couchbase is serving good amount of services but if the data model is not efficient enough then using couchbase can be a overkill for small startup projects as its moderately cost and cpu expensive.

What do you like best about the product?
The query service for interacting with db is so powerful and awesome. Multiple Views can be created for your needs. Various indexes can be created to make querying fast.

There is a scope for improvement in time taken for node rebalancing and syncing. Time taken for indexes can be reduced.

I have used couchbase to store travel related data in documents which can be indexed and various views can be created. It supports multi threading like a charm. Created various views and used map reduce to suit my needs.

Kudos to the team and I hope you continue this great work.

Migrating from SQL servers to couch base was a bit difficult but with small effort, the results were great.

One Platform to Rule Them All

  • May 30, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

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.
