Since working with Couchbase Server starting from version 6, where only scopes and collections were available, I have seen numerous improvements with the release of version 7, especially as bugs identified in version 6 were addressed by the Couchbase Server team. One specific outcome I have noticed is identifying constraints such as not being able to create more than thirty buckets, which we notified the Couchbase Server team about, along with several missing monitoring parameters; they worked with us to provide better solutions in terms of monitoring and the metrics we require for our production monitoring setups, ensuring our production is up and running smoothly. Regarding improvements, I feel that the current dedicated monitoring, such as CMX offered by Couchbase Server, requires enhancements for better identification of issues, especially since the market is moving towards AI-driven solutions, and I believe Couchbase Server is working on improving its AI capabilities. Couchbase Server requires more enhancement, particularly with the MCP launched by Couchbase Server which is not yet fully functional and offers limited tools that are not beneficial for automating production workflows. Regarding the accuracy and reliability of Couchbase Server's AI capabilities, I perceive there are gaps since the tools are not being developed maturely and require more developed solutions for our agent workflows to facilitate automation with AI agents.
