Overall Satisfaction with Couchbase Data Platform

We are writing a PoC at the moment to validate that Couchbase makes sense for our use case. Mojio essentially needs a solution that is more scalable and with performance than what we use now. Couchbase seems to be a good candidate with all functionalities and the caching layer, so we are at the evaluation phase. If it turns out to be a better solution, we will firstly migrate our date to Couchbase and eventually use analytics and even the mobile features.
  • The managed caching layer.
  • The easy integration with analytics.
  • The mobile features.
  • More online support (courses, etc).
  • More documentation.
  • The conference was awesome, so more conferences a year :)
  • We are still at the Poc concept, so potentially cost savings.
  • Potentially better performance.
  • Potentially better scalability.
At this point I'm speculating that the scalability is great, but until we are able to prove it, I can't give a 10.
Same as previous answer. Sounds like that the performance is great, but we are still at the PoC phase, so I can't just just it's a 10.
Since we are still writing a PoC, we are not 100% if Couchbase is the right replacement for the technologies we use. The main rationale behind this choice is to have a managed cache layer to help reduce cost and increase reliability,performance and scalability
It is suited for scenarios in which a managed cache layer is needed, better integration with mobile data.
