SANTA
CLARA, Calif., June 1, 2023
/PRNewswire/ -- Couchbase, Inc. (NASDAQ: BASE), the cloud
database platform company, today announced a broad range of
enhancements to its industry-leading Database-as-a-Service
Couchbase Capella™. The newest release of Capella will be
accessible by popular developer platform Netlify and features a new
Visual Studio Code (VS Code) extension, making it easier for
developers and development teams to build modern applications on
Capella, streamline their workflows and increase productivity.
Coinciding with National Cloud Database Day, Couchbase is also
extending its enterprise deployability and introducing new
features, allowing customers to move more applications to Capella
with a lower TCO.
"The reality is that developers don't want to spend their time
operating and integrating separate primitives. Capella's new
developer platform integrations aim to address this widespread
issue, minimizing the developer experience gap and allowing teams
to focus on what they do best — writing code and solving problems,"
said Rachel Stephens, senior analyst
at RedMonk.
Simplifying the Developer Experience With Netlify, VS Code
and Capella
Findings from Couchbase's recent developer survey reveal that
the majority of developers (94.9%) are currently at or over their
work capacity and are on the brink of or already feeling
overwhelmed. To reduce this friction and help developers lower
their number of operational tasks, Couchbase is extending Capella
to more of the developer platform ecosystem that is highly favored
by frontend and full stack developers.
The new integration for Capella makes it easy for developers to
connect to Netlify for more simplified and agile web application
development. In addition, the new VS Code extension is designed to
provide a seamless experience for Capella users who want to work
within the popular source-code editor. These ecosystem enhancements
are now available and reduce friction so that developers can focus
on building innovative modern apps.
"Netlify's platform unites an extensive ecosystem of
technologies, services and APIs into one workflow to empower
developers to build composable web experiences with the tools that
best suit their needs. In this way, Netlify meets their users where
they are, allowing them to embrace the composable web in a manner
that respects their existing businesses, while also balancing
flexibility and enterprise-grade reliability. I'm a strong believer
that when the ecosystem wins, we all win. That's why we're so
excited to deepen our ties with Couchbase to strengthen and
diversify the ecosystem of tools developers are using to build the
modern web," said Chris Bach,
co-founder and chief strategy and creative officer at Netlify.
Broader Enterprise Deployability and New Enterprise
Features
Couchbase is also broadening Capella's enterprise features and
deployability so customers can move more applications to the cloud
database platform. The new Capella enhancements deliver the
following benefits:
- Support for time series data. A new time series
array function in Couchbase's support for JSON will enable a
broader set of use cases, such as IoT or finance apps. By using
time series arrays, Couchbase is able to utilize all of its data
access, processing and storage features including its patented
array indexing and high-density storage engine. This approach will
enable development teams to quickly and easily extend new features
to their applications without adding complexity to their
architecture or infrastructure, allowing them to be more agile and
productive while driving cost efficiency.
- Extending deployability of Capella. Couchbase has added
over 10 new supported regions across the three major cloud service
providers and larger instance sizes. Capella is also available
directly in each of their marketplaces. Capella adds support for
memory-only buckets (ephemeral databases) for caching and transient
data use cases. Security and compliance capabilities are
enhanced through Google Cloud HIPAA compliance and with
private endpoints for Azure.
- Enhanced management. Managing Capella is even easier now
with the introduction of dynamic disk scaling, hibernation of
clusters and the enabling of downloadable buckets. Also new is
change data capture, which recognizes and automates change history
on documents. This is then streamable via Kafka to other
applications.
These enhancements collectively position Capella as a single,
comprehensive cloud database platform that offers broad multimodel
support and in-memory performance — a powerful combination that
lowers TCO for customers.
"We continue to broaden the Capella capabilities and make it
easier for new developers to come on board and take advantage of
our industry-leading cloud database platform," said Scott Anderson, SVP of product management and
business operations at Couchbase. "Development teams can get
started with Capella more quickly and do more with our cloud
database platform, improving efficiency and productivity. And for
operations teams, Capella becomes even easier to deploy and manage
while broadened enterprise capabilities handle more workloads at a
fraction of the cost compared to other document-based DBaaS
offerings."
The new release of Capella will be generally available in the
second quarter. Couchbase will host a webcast on June 7 and 8 to discuss what's new in Capella and
how customers can benefit from the latest enhancements. Register
