Overall Satisfaction with Couchbase
We use Couchbase for two main purposes. First is the NoSQL database to store unstructured data. The n1ql language is very powerful to retrieve these data in every possible way. The second purpose is key/value storage used in caches. We use Couchbase to store serialized java objects representing cached data.
Pros
- N1QL requests
- Key/value storage
- Performance
Cons
- Indexes need some time to understand
- Documentation could be improved somtimes
- Effective distributed cache to preserve low latency services
- Indexes are very important and not easy to learn
Couchbase was mainly selected because it provided professional support, which was mandatory. I did not participate in the technical decisions.
