My advice to others considering Couchbase Capella would be that if your primary use case involves handling flexible JSON with horizontal scaling and near low-latency access, then you should consider Couchbase Capella. I also suggest running a proof of concept using realistic production data and traffic beforehand. I would rate this product an eight out of ten.
We are Counchbase customers. Depending on your application, it is good to use Couchbase where you have high OLTP systems where you know there will be constant data loading, deleting, et cetera, happening. It's a good approach to choosing the Couchbase system, and it's fairly easy to use. The main factor to remember is the tuning component in Couchbase. It can be a nightmare if it's not done properly. That said, the resident ratio, for example, the RAM allocations as per the bucket sizing, et cetera, needs to be looked at very carefully while deploying your buckets. Capacity management is something which needs to be looked into. Think long-term and keep adding the capacity as and when it is needed since that will also not be good for the product itself. I'd rate the solution eight out of ten.
