Couchbase,
Inc., provider of the most complete NoSQL database, today announced
the beta release of Couchbase Server 3.0. With this beta release,
Couchbase seeks to get valuable user input on new features that
strengthen its core architecture and greatly improve the developer and
administrator experiences. In addition to making the beta version
available, Couchbase has launched a bug
bash with winners to be announced at its annual user conference in
San Francisco, Couchbase
Connect.
“In this release, we are extending our core architecture in ways that
further Couchbase Server’s lead as the most scalable and best performing
NoSQL database,” said Ravi Mayuram, Senior Vice President of Products
and Engineering, Couchbase. “In addition to foundational changes, like
the advanced stream based protocol and tunable memory, that improve
performance and enable Couchbase to support many new use cases, we have
dramatically improved the developer experience making it easier to build
and extend applications built on Couchbase.”
Couchbase Server 3.0 solidifies Couchbase’s lead as the best performing,
most scalable NoSQL database, and makes it faster and easier for
developers to build apps on next generation technologies. The beta,
available for download
now, is a great opportunity for developers and administrators to start
familiarizing themselves with the many new capabilities Couchbase Server
3.0 will deliver.
Advanced Architecture Delivers Unbeatable Performance, Scale and
Reliability
Couchbase Server 3.0 foundational advancements introduce a next
generation, stream-based protocol, Database Change Protocol (DCP), that
dramatically reduces latency, enables blazing fast speed by removing
bottlenecks, and provides better utilization of increased memory and
network capabilities. With the new DCP, Couchbase view performance is
dramatically improved: changes made to documents are immediately
streamed and rapidly indexed, making it possible to query data in near
real time speeds. Additionally, DCP reduces latency for Couchbase Cross
Data Center Replication (XDCR) by replicating data memory-to-memory from
the source cluster to the destination cluster.
The new release also introduces the NoSQL industry’s first and only
on-the-fly tunable memory, enabling businesses to manage big data
however they want: tune for all data to stay in memory for super fast
response times, or for an appropriate subset to reside in memory. This
new capability gives Couchbase Server the power to support very large
data sets efficiently and cost effectively, and makes it possible for
Couchbase Server to support a variety of new use cases as the database
can be configured on the fly to support whatever the application needs.
New Features Improve Experience for the Developer, Administrator and
the Enterprise
Couchbase Server 3.0 also includes numerous enhancements and new
features that deliver industrial-strength, enterprise grade
administration. Some highlights of the new release include:
Simplified Administration:
-
Couchbase Server 3.0 includes new options for incremental backup and
restore. This new ability, which enables incremental backups of only
data changed since the last backup, requires less storage and
completes faster.
-
Administrators will also benefit from new bucket priorities. Buckets
are isolated, virtual containers that logically group records within a
cluster; they are the functional equivalent to a database. This new
prioritization capability gives administrators better control of
bucket resource allocation with pause and resume controls that enable
XDCR replication to be stopped and started again during maintenance.
Enterprise Class Security:
-
Couchbase Server 3.0 raises the bar on NoSQL security with encrypted
data access. SSL encrypts data in-flight between client and server,
providing secure on-the-wire data access for applications and
administrators.
-
Making access safe and secure, Couchbase Server 3.0 introduces
encrypted HTTPS access to the Couchbase administrator console and the
REST API.
Ease of Development
-
With Couchbase Server 3.0, developers can use Couchbase 2.0 SDKs to
access fully integrated, native JSON, making it easier and faster to
build applications in the most widely used languages.
-
New and powerful asynchronous and reactive interfaces in Java
and .NET
give developers the ability to build richer applications, with better
IO performance.
-
New integrations with Spring, gEvent, twisted and more, make it easier
for developers to build applications on popular, open source
frameworks.
A full listing of new features can be found here.
Couchbase Server 3.0 Bug Bash
As part of the beta release, Couchbase is also announcing the Couchbase
Server 3.0 Bug Bash, a contest inviting developers to put Couchbase
Server 3.0 to the test. Couchbase is giving rewards, swag and public
recognition to developers who help make Couchbase Server 3.0 a secure,
high quality, and bug free release. Winners will be recognized in three
categories: most severe bug, most unique bug and most number of bugs.
Developers interested in joining the bug bash should visit www.couchbase.com/bugbash.
