We performed a comparison between Apache HBase and Couchbase based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about MongoDB, Couchbase, InfluxData and others in NoSQL Databases."Apache HBase is a database used for data storage."
"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."
"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."
"It can scale horizontally, and we are looking to expand our capacity."
"The most valuable feature of Couchbase is document indexing. It is better than MongoDB. Additionally, the solution is easy to use."
"I have found the views to be very valuable."
"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."
"Sync Gateway is a great feature that supports the mobile application."
"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 don't like using Apache HBase to store huge amounts of data because of many performance issues."
"It is very difficult to load the backup of the older version to the newer version."
"One thing that could improved upon is the level of concurrency. The documentation for this solution could also be improved."
"Couchbase could improve the design of the UI because it should be optimized for viewing statistics or a similar feature."
"The performance could be quicker and better, especially in the querying process."
"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."
"I have tried multiple libraries in a demo they provide and it works fine, but when it merges with libraries, it creates a problem."
"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 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."
Apache HBase is ranked 10th in NoSQL Databases with 1 review while Couchbase is ranked 2nd in NoSQL Databases with 10 reviews. Apache HBase is rated 4.0, while Couchbase is rated 8.2. The top reviewer of Apache HBase writes "The solution has many performance issues, though it helps manage consumer data sets". On the other hand, the top reviewer of Couchbase writes "No SQL cloud based solution used to manage unstructured data and push out large volumes of metrics at a low latency". Apache HBase is most compared with Accumulo, ScyllaDB, MongoDB and Cassandra, whereas Couchbase is most compared with MongoDB, Cassandra, ScyllaDB and CouchDB.
