Couchbase Pros review quotes

The whole stack is valuable, but the portion of the stack that we're finding really handy is the analytics engine because that allows us to take and pre-build views.

I can input any kind of document into the solution and it is integrated using a dynamic API. This has been the most valuable aspect of using this solution.

Sync Gateway is a great feature that supports the mobile application.

The main advantages were associated with it being a no SQL database. It helped us send out metrics or rewards to multiple players in our game at a very low latency.

The principal advantage of Couchbase is that we can have multiple database paradigms in the same product, without deploying multiple databases. We also like that it has lower latency, when compared to its competitor: Cassandra.

The valuable features of Couchbase are the many documents and index types, and they made a lot of features available enabling us to use it as a complete solution for our needs.

The most valuable feature of Couchbase is document indexing. It is better than MongoDB. Additionally, the solution is easy to use.

Couchbase Cons review quotes

It's easy to deploy. Where the challenge comes in is when you start putting data in, doing the indexes, and doing the integration with systems. Integration is one of their weakest points. Natively, there should be a wide range of integration options to be able to get data in.

The scripting language for this solution could be improved. A big selling point is that they're like SQL server but there is still quite a lot of missing functionality.

It is very difficult to load the backup of the older version to the newer version.

Needs some capacity planning to deal with too much memory, CPUs and displays.

One thing that could improved upon is the level of concurrency. The documentation for this solution could also be improved.

We would like to have a better management of Kubernetes with the free, open source version of Couchbase. We don't have any major complaints other than that.

There are some limitations to the database. The SQL database cannot handle real-time processing for critical IoT scenarios. What we have to do is store our data into the database then code it out, this wastes a lot of time.

The failover and failback could be a bit easier. When I looked at it last time, it had to be manually done. It also took over an hour for us to rebalance all the nodes.

Couchbase could improve the design of the UI because it should be optimized for viewing statistics or a similar feature.

I have tried multiple libraries in a demo they provide and it works fine, but when it merges with libraries, it creates a problem.
