Oracle Replacement: Make the Switch to Couchbase

Couchbase is replacing Oracle to improve performance, increase flexibility, and reduce costs.

CHALLENGES

Top 3 reasons for choosing Couchbase over Oracle

Enterprise customers are replacing relational databases with Couchbase’s modern NoSQL databases to power their modern applications with greater agility and better performance at a lower cost.

  • Expensive and difficult to scale

    Oracle costs 10-40x more with complex per-core licensing for servers with many cores.

  • Lack of data flexibility

    Oracle makes agile development more difficult, leading to slowdowns and downtime.

  • Missing RDBMS features in NoSQL

    Oracle has a hard time delivering low-latency performance for customer-facing applications.
