How do apps work without internet?
Challenge
Apps that hit the cloud for every read and write stall on network latency and break outright when connectivity drops.
Solution
Couchbase Mobile combines Couchbase Lite – an embedded NoSQL database – with an enterprise backend, cloud sync, and on-device vector search. Your app accesses local data in milliseconds, ensuring responsiveness regardless of connectivity, and automatically syncs to the cloud when the network resumes.

Developing your own data sync is hard
Challenge
Data synchronization is complex. It must be bidirectional, handle conflicts, detect network availability, and retry requests when interrupted.
Solution
Skip building a custom sync stack. Couchbase Mobile provides bidirectional cloud-to-edge sync, peer-to-peer sync for collaboration, customizable conflict resolution via version vectors, delta sync to save bandwidth, and document-level filtering with role-based access control – all out of the box.

AI needs fast, reliable secure data
Challenge
When you build agentic mobile apps using cloud-based LLMs you run into data privacy and internet latency concerns.
Solution
Couchbase Lite, the embeddable database for mobile and IoT apps, supports vector search on-device and integrates directly with local or remote AI models, enabling agentic apps at the edge that run without internet dependencies – making them fast, reliable, and secure.

Managing the backend slows development
Challenge
Installing and managing backend servers to handle data processing, security, and synchronization for your app takes time away from development.
Solution
App Services is a fully managed database backend and sync service for Couchbase Mobile apps. No servers to provision, patch, or scale – just point your app at App Services and focus on shipping features. Prefer self-hosting? Run Sync Gateway in your own infrastructure with the same APIs.
