Couchbase Announces Availability of Couchbase Server 2.0

MOUNTAIN VIEW, CA — (Marketwire) — 12/12/12 — , a leader in database technology and the company behind the Couchbase open source project, today announced the general availability of Couchbase Server 2.0, the company-s flagship NoSQL database product. The 2.0 release augments existing key-value database capabilities with a flexible document data model, enabling developers to rapidly build and modify their web and mobile applications without the constraints of relational database schemas. Couchbase Server 2.0 also provides easy scalability, consistent high performance, and always-on capabilities to ensure fast response times and uninterrupted data availability for business-critical web and mobile applications.

Couchbase Server, the leading NoSQL key-value database, now provides document database functionality. By encompassing both key-value and document database models, Couchbase Server 2.0 enables users to address a broad range of use cases with a single NoSQL database technology.

Key new document-oriented features in Couchbase Server 2.0 include:

, based on JSON, eliminates the need to create and manage schemas. This significantly increases agility while reducing the complexity and time required when building and modifying applications.

allows users to access stored data via queries, expanding the baseline of supported use cases, including content-oriented web applications and metadata management.

enables developers to incorporate simple real-time analytics into their applications, for example, leaderboards in social gaming applications.

Couchbase Server 2.0 furthers Couchbase-s traditional strengths in scalability, performance, and always-on reliability, with new features such as:

enables automatic replication of databases across geographically disparate data centers, ensuring data availability in the event of catastrophic infrastructure failures and improving application response time by locating data closer to the users accessing it.

such as online data and index compaction, further enable Couchbase Server-s zero-downtime application maintenance.

“As we look at building and expanding our highly-available applications across multiple data centers, Couchbase Server 2.0-s cross data center replication will allow us to easily distribute information across multiple data centers. It will not only protect us against data center outages but also bring data closer to our users for a better user experience. In addition, Couchbase Server 2.0 builds on to the key-value capabilities, and adds indexing and querying that will allow us to create richer applications for our users.” – J. Steven Young, Team Lead, Site Reliability Engineering, Orbitz

“McGraw Hill Education is committed to building innovative digital products and services for the education market. Using new approaches to technology, we are pioneering new ways of teaching and learning with digital technologies. NoSQL database technology, and in particular Couchbase, fits well with our vision. As a document database, Couchbase Server 2.0 provides a flexible data model — including indexing and querying, full-text search integration and incremental Map Reduce — on which we can develop content-rich, highly dynamic, interactive applications that will transform how people teach and learn.” – Christopher Tse, Director of McGraw Hill Education Labs

“As we add functionality to our new and existing games, indexing and querying will be critical to the feature implementation. With its flexible data model, the Couchbase Server 2.0 document database is a great fit for our needs and will help us be a more agile competitor in the rapidly evolving social gaming space.” – Xiang Shen, Server Lead, Stomp Games, Tencent

“As a mobile advertising platform, we serve and manage hundreds of millions of user profiles and that number is growing daily. The ability to scale the data tier easily can make or break our success, so the cluster management capabilities in Couchbase Server are a huge advantage for us, allowing us to expand on demand. In addition, the ability to index and query data brings us a lot more flexibility to rapidly enhance our platform.” – Benjamin Gordon, Chief Architect, Jumptap

“Couchbase 2.0 is the most important release to date in the life of Couchbase NoSQL technology, and we-ve worked hard to make sure it provides the same easy scalability, consistently high performance, and reliability at scale for which Couchbase has become well known, while also providing the indexing and querying capabilities that developers love about a document database. We think Couchbase 2.0 is a great fit for those looking for a better scaling, higher performance alternative to existing document database offerings.” – Bob Wiederhold, CEO, Couchbase

“New use cases and data requirements for high usage, massive scale-out and flexible, rapidly changing design needs are pushing RDBMS products beyond their limits. Those products were designed for fixed schemas, where data structure varies little over time. NoSQL offerings are drawing a great deal of attention because they are designed for greater flexibility and less-fixed data definition, in line with the expectations of programmers building today-s new systems.” – Merv Adrian, Research VP, Gartner
