Couchbase Capella vs. InfluxDB

Couchbase is a great NoSQL database and most businesses will benefit from this software. For those launching and developing applications, Couchbase is a solution. In addition, those businesses that requires a NoSQL data base will as well benefit. In a nutshell, Couchbase has something for every business depending on the version you choose.

InfluxDB is very good at storing monitoring metrics (e.g. performance data). InfluxDB is not the right choice if you need to store other data types (like plain text, data relations etc.).

InfluxDB is a near perfect product for time series database engines. The relatively small list of cons are heavily outweighed by it's ability to just work and be a very flexible and powerful database engine. The community and support provided by the corporation are the only areas I have little experience.

Couchbase handles multiple data sources efficiently and is also good at handling high data volumes. It is scalable as well which is a plus

We have worked with the InfluxDB support team a few times so far and it has been positive. Issues submitted are worked on promptly and we have good feedback.

Couchbase offers more flexibility, it is more secure and most importantly, it is scalable and therefore affordable.

To be honest, I didn't look at alternatives since InfluxDB performs very well if you can oversee the lack of security and HA features. But for all challenges, there is an easy solution which brings you forward (e.g. read load balancing can be achieved by using a common HTTPS load balancer).

Incentivized

• This is a NoSQL Database
• Couchbase is very secure
• Couchbase is very fast when processing queries

Incentivized

• Provided us a time series DB.
• With the SQL-like language, it is very easy to learn.
• Empowered us to keep track of our events.
