And Scopes are a set of related Collections, making them similar to an RDBMS schema. But in both cases, Scopes and Collections are more flexible since they store JSON documents.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Because of these similarities in the organization of data, migrating from a relational database and adopting Capella App Services for mobile apps becomes much easier for developers.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Scalable Multi-tenant applications<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Scopes and Collections in App Services brings the ability to support multi-tenant applications that require independent data lifecycle management, such as an ISV hosting an events application for many enterprise tenants. Previous to this support, multi-tenant apps on App Services would have to create separate buckets for each tenant, making management and scaling of the environment complex and less than cost-effective, especially as tenants increase.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now with Scopes and Collections, multiple tenants data can be managed and secured in Scopes within a single bucket, making management across the entire app ecosystem easier, while still providing independent data lifecycle management.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>High application density at the edge<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is the ability to support large scale cloud-to-edge deployments with a number of applications at the edge, such as a fleet of oil drilling platforms or cruise ships, each running several on-board applications built using microservices. Previous to support for Scopes and Collections, the microservices would run on each vessel in its own bucket, creating complexity for data synchronization and limiting the number of apps served to the number of buckets supported in a cluster.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now with Scopes and Collections in App Services, each app is associated with a scope and each microservice is associated with its own collection. The result is the ability to host a larger number of applications on fewer clusters.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Go more in-depth into these and other use cases, including example scenarios and reference diagrams <\/span><\/i><a href=\"https:\/\/www.couchbase.com\/blog\/scopes-collections-couchbase-mobile\/\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">in this blog<\/span><\/i><\/a><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Scopes and Collections from cloud-to-edge with App Services<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Scopes and Collections are available end-to-end across the entire <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.couchbase.com\/products\/mobile\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Couchbase Mobile<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> stack, now including hosted deployments on Capella App Services.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Learn more about Couchbase Mobile and App Services:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><a href=\"https:\/\/docs.couchbase.com\/couchbase-lite\/current\/java\/scopes-collections-manage.html?_gl=1*1xfn5dc*_gcl_aw*R0NMLjE3MTc3NzM0MTAuQ2p3S0NBanczNHF6QmhCbUVpd0FPVVFjRjk4RjJqT3ljV3UwWGZTalBxNDlNaTdsem9SMjNXcXAxTlFLN21wY1hQNllwTW9ldExmZVh4b0NiNzRRQXZEX0J3RQ..*_gcl_au*NjQxMTcxNjIuMTcyMDc5NDYzNw..\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Scopes and Collections in Couchbase Lite<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.couchbase.com\/content\/c\/capella_app_services_datasheet?x=9xr1sL\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Capella App Services datasheet<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><a href=\"https:\/\/resources.couchbase.com\/c\/how-to-choose-a-mobi?x=9xr1sL\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Choosing the right mobile database<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And be sure to sign up for the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/cloud.couchbase.com\/sign-up\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">free trial of Capella App Services<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">!<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Scopes and Collections is a powerful feature in Couchbase that allows developers to isolate data for applications logically, helping enforce independent app lifecycle management and bringing particular advantages in efficient, scalable, highly secure handling of data for distributed mobile and [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":68550,"featured_media":16084,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[10130,1814,2225,1810,7666],"tags":[9339],"ppma_author":[8920],"class_list":["post-16083","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-app-services","category-application-design","category-cloud","category-couchbase-mobile","category-edge-computing","tag-scopes-and-collections"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v25.8 (Yoast SEO v25.8) -
