Top 5 reasons companies replace Oracle with Couchbase
Single data platform for web and mobile apps
Single data platform for web and mobile apps
Couchbase provides a multipurpose, feature-rich database platform that addresses the challenges posed by B2C applications in the areas of caching and data persistence at scale. The platform also includes an embedded database and sync technology to deliver always-on experiences.
Greater agility and faster time to market
Greater agility and faster time to market
With a flexible JSON-based data model and a SQL-based query language (N1QL), Couchbase enables developers to build applications faster, more easily, and without needing a dedicated DBA to manage schemas.
Better performance at scale
Better performance at scale
Couchbase is based on a shared-nothing, memory-first architecture with an integrated cache and memory-to-memory replication. The result is consistent high-throughput performance with sub-millisecond response times at any scale.
Superior multiple datacenter support
Superior multiple datacenter support
Couchbase provides cross datacenter replication (XDCR), which makes it super easy to set up active-active bidirectional clusters across multiple regions. Applications can perform local read and write across regions, improving data latency and overall availability.
Lower TCO
Lower TCO
With subscriptions based on the number of instances, Couchbase typically costs 10-40x less than Oracle and its complex per-core based licensing – especially on servers with many cores.
Moving From Relational to NoSQL: How to Get Started
Modern web and mobile applications are developed for superior customer engagement and require far more agility, scalability, and support for real-time data management than traditional apps. But, relational databases simply weren’t designed to meet these new requirements. That’s why Couchbase offers the world’s first Engagement Database, built on the most powerful NoSQL technology, to power all your next-gen apps. In this whitepaper, we'll walk you through:
– Identifying the right application for your first NoSQL project
– Examples of modeling relational data as documents
– Requirements for a successful proof of concept
– Tips for migrating from relational databases
How Couchbase helps increase performance and reduce costs
Distributed in-memory data
Use integrated caching and built-in clustering to access terabytes of data with consistent sub-millisecond latency.
Elastic on-demand scaling
Add nodes on demand to scale out reads and writes and support permanent or temporary workload increases.
Multi-master, multi-region deployment
Make all reads and writes local by running in multiple regions and enabling built-in cross datacenter replication.
Lower operation costs
Full-text search, analytics, caching, data persistence, indexing, and mobility are all delivered in a single data platform, making it easy to deploy and manage the software stack with minimal DBA resources.
Lower hardware/software costs
Reduce the amount of hardware needed by offloading workload and scaling out on commodity hardware. And Couchbase is billed per compute node instead of by CPU cores per node, so it costs less to license.
No expensive add-ons
Eliminate the need for Oracle Coherence and GoldenGate with integrated caching and built-in cross datacenter replication.

How companies use Couchbase with Oracle
As part of its legacy modernization efforts, Marriott is using Couchbase to offload room availability and reservations workloads from a backend mainframe. Making the move to Couchbase enables Marriott to offer new services even as the company reduces related costs.

Nuance, a speech-recognition and imaging software company, knew its monolithic, all-Oracle environment was expensive to scale and inflexible for varied data types. As it explored NoSQL, it found MongoDB hard to manage. It chose Couchbase for easy, cost-effective performance at scale and bi-directional replication.

eBay uses Couchbase to store user authentication tokens and session state. By storing short-lived data in a memory-optimized database, Couchbase enables them to improve application performance while reducing load on the relational database.

Switching to NoSQL is easier than ever
Declarative query language
Today’s businesses expect performance at scale, but not at the expense of a query language. Developers like building applications using SQL because it optimizes productivity.
Developers
Couchbase provide a mature SQL-based query language (aka N1QL) for JSON documents that supports filtering, joins, aggregation, and more. For big data insight, developers can leverage an integrated yet independent analytics service.
Administrators
Query Workbench provides a rich graphical user interface to conveniently explore data and create, edit, run, and save N1QL queries. For easy monitoring and management, Query Monitoring provides a real-time view of the query service by listing the active queries, completed long-running queries, and prepared statements.
Flexibility and agility
The key to success in today’s digital economy is to be able to develop engaging customer applications with agility and deliver them to market faster.
Developers
Couchbase provides a schemaless JSON document store that allows developers to ingest data fast without defining the schema beforehand. Features like Global Secondary Indexes (GSI), Adaptive Index, and Full Text Search (FTS) enable applications to perform fast keyword searches over their data.
Administrators
Full Text Search (FTS) is an integrated service of the Couchbase Data Platform, so operations teams need no additional training to support it. And because it’s integrated, FTS also benefits from the elastic scalability of the Couchbase cluster, which allows you to meet any business workload need.
Security and availability
Just as high availability is critical for meeting the demanding expectations of users, a secure infrastructure is vital for preventing unauthorized access or denial of service due to breaches.
Developers
The latest Couchbase release extends the Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) to application users, making it possible to write secure applications with fine-grained access control. Developers can also now leverage multi-datacenter awareness that’s built into the SDKs to deliver applications that transparently fail over to other nodes or datacenters in the event of failure.
Administrators
Couchbase Server allows administrators to implement various security controls to ensure secure deployment and compliance with regulatory standards such as PCI DSS, GDPR, and HIPAA. Built-in features like multiple datacenter support, disaster recovery, and fast failover mean zero downtime during any planned or unplanned failure scenario.
