Five signs you’ve outgrown Couchbase
If you’re like many Couchbase users, you probably found the firm’s database a good initial choice for storing and querying JSON data. Its memory-first approach offers some performance benefits, and its Couchbase Lite and Sync Gateway options provide interesting mobile capabilities.

Playtika
Use case/application: Online gaming
Couchbase challenge: Growth in user demands strained their data management infrastructure, leading to performance problems, unbalanced utilization across clusters, sprawling server footprints, and rampant maintenance issues.

Criteo
Use case/application: Real-time ad bidding
Couchbase challenge: Restricted to an outdated version of Couchbase due to scaling and budgetary issues that came with other versions, Criteo struggled to keep up with growing data demands.

AppsFlyer
Use case/application: Mobile marketing analytics and attribution platform. AppsFlyer’s traffic trends are very dynamic and unpredictable. Their infrastructure must scale up or down very rapidly. For example, a sports or shopping campaign can increase traffic by 100 percent in one day.
Couchbase challenge: Poor stability led to performance issues and frequent failures, with backups taking over a day to complete.
