Good GUI, easy to learn, and simple to install
The architecture is complex. I do understand that. However, the GUI is very user-friendly. Sometimes all these things are a little difficult to understand for a person who is not experienced in Couchbase. There is a constant requirement to upgrade the versions. We need to constantly keep on upgrading the latest version for the newest one. Currently, we are dealing with an issue where some of the servers are on the 6.5 version, and a few have moved to 7.5. So we are in a mixed mode right now. We are having a high IO issue on our servers, which we are already dealing with. We have these cases with Couchbase, with Red Hat, et cetera. We feel like this constant need to upgrade is something that is very mundane yet a very difficult task. If you have three clusters, which have around thirty nodes, the data is quite sensitive. Whenever there is Couchbase upgrade that is going on, we see that our SR is dropped. The purchase rate and success rate drop. This affects our business and the clients. Rebalancing could be improved. I find it to be a very slow process when it comes to rebalancing the clusters. If you talk about other architectures like Oracle, they are pretty fast. Couchbase is a little slower. Rebalancing, taking the node out, doing the upgrade, putting it back, rebalancing it, is a very difficult and cumbersome. For Oracle, we have been running on version 19.5 for the past five years. There were absolutely no issues. Yet for Couchbase, every six months, we have to go do the upgrade.

Improved data migration has supported governance and AI matching yet still needs smoother self-service
I would not characterize it as a drawback, but there are a few things which were good at that time but have now become stable. The older transformations that have degraded now have to be changed. I would not say it has to be something that needs to be updated or upgraded, but the bottom line is there needs to be updates for data migration and all that. Multiple companies, including my consulting service firm, have created accelerators for upgrading those things. Ultimately, I would say that it is still stable. If there is nothing to be updated or created, then our job would be done. I would say it is mixed regarding self-service data preparation features for non-technical users, as it is a tool that has been around for a long time. There is a significant amount of information on the internet to help us out, including many KB articles. However, I would suggest to Informatica that there should be a different approach in providing KB articles and information. The information should be provided in a seamless way for the entire functions, not in bits and pieces across different places. For instance, if I need to create a data model, the entire process flow, including database objects, entity objects, business entities, entity views, and all that should be presented in that particular direction as a project situation, rather than scattered across plain sections.

"I have not seen any return on investment at the moment or any tangible benefits so far."
"For Informatica Intelligent Data Management Cloud in general, as a product and service, I would rate it somewhere between seven to seven point five, particularly for the AI part because it is still new and still needs multiple refinements and efficiencies."
