Overall Satisfaction with Couchbase Data Platform
Couchbase is currently being used as a part of our mobile stack, specifically for the Sync Gateway capabilities. It allows for easy management of data state and for push/pull of updates, The built-in XDCR capabilities allow us to migrate data easily from one server cluster to another easily when needed. The NoSQL format allows us to massage our data into a much more consumable and lighter weight format, increasing sync performance.
- Easy sync protocol to mobile devices, the minimal code needed to pull data down to a device.
- Powerful indexing that can be as simple or as complex as you need, allowing for quick lookups for commonly used data sets.
- Great analytics present in the server dashboard that allows you a great top-down view of system usage, resources, etc.
- Bit of a steep learning curve to get a cluster set up, especially with sync gateway.
- Easy to scale up/down server clusters.
- Zero downtime upgrades/migrations.
