Couchbase Server, originally known as Membase, is a source-available,[2] distributed (shared-nothing architecture) multi-model NoSQL document-oriented database software package optimized for interactive applications. These applications may serve many concurrent users by creating, storing, retrieving, aggregating, manipulating and presenting data. In support of these kinds of application needs, Couchbase Server is designed to provide easy-to-scale key-value, or JSON document access, with low latency and high sustainability throughput. It is designed to be clustered from a single machine to very large-scale deployments spanning many machines.
Couchbase Server provided client protocol compatibility with memcached,[3] but added disk persistence, data replication, live cluster reconfiguration, rebalancing and multitenancy with data partitioning.
