Power real-time server logic with Couchbase Eventing

Learn How

Real-time server-side event processing

The Eventing Service abstracts away infrastructure concerns, allowing developers to focus solely on business logic to handle data changes. Typical use cases include enriching documents, cascade deletes, generating threshold-based alerts, propagating data changes inside a database, and interacting with external REST endpoints.

Streamline your business by managing business logic closer to the data

Efficient

Make it easier for developers to quickly capture and propagate changes across business-critical applications when requirements and workflows change.

Language constructs
Scalable

Reliably execute changing business logic at scale when there are high-velocity changes in data.

Eventing lifecycle
Consistent

Centrally manage data-driven business logic to maintain consistency across multiple server components and client applications.

Eventing examples
Fast

Instantly analyze and respond to data changes to use data more efficiently, make decisions faster, and avoid missed opportunities.

Eventing overview

Eventing key capabilities

Eventing enables real-time data mutation management, alert setting, and data change propagation without third-party tools. You can improve business workflows using an event-condition-action model, and can reduce technical barriers and infrastructure costs.

Event-based business logic

Process data mutations (create, update, expiry, delete operations) in real time with custom business logic.

Integration with Couchbase Services

Set up alerts, monitoring, and enrichment using document reads/writes, atomic counters, and SQL++.

Efficiency and scalability

Outperform traditional message queues or polling in efficiency and scalability. End dual-write and write-failure.

Debugging and troubleshooting

Use integrated debugging to simplify and streamline troubleshooting and to enhance development and maintenance.

Unmatched agility and flexibility

Familiar JavaScript programming and an interactive visual debugger make it easier for developers to build, test, and maintain data-driven business functions closer to the data.
