Couchbase provides the capabilities and storage our business was looking for with some of our large projects, which are being used today. The team itself is a great partner who is always willing to help and make sure our environments are stable and secured but make sure we are content. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's user-friendly usage and integrated to multiple languages and handle all DB complexity through internally and the user should focus only on business logic. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It sometimes intermittently fails the CRUD operation and hides the exact reason of failure. Exception handling and logging should be improved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The initial setting-up process is time-consuming. As well as, this has less community support. Also, need better documentation. Otherwise, this is the right database solution for us according to our experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Curd operations are simple and also Sub-document api is good one. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is nothing to dislike side. But it would we better if we have some better gui for index creation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
