Couchbase Announces Microsoft Azure Support for Capella DBaaS

Couchbase Inc., a cloud database platform company, announced its Couchbase Capella Database-as-a-Service (DBaaS) offering on Azure. Couchbase customers now can take advantage of the Azure cloud platform with streamlined deployment and management.

Capella on Azure allows customers to improve alignment with applications and support hybrid and multi-cloud strategies from a single platform.

“With Capella on Microsoft Azure, customers around the world can easily deploy premium experience modern applications to run on the trusted Azure platform,” said Jake Zborowski, general manager, Microsoft Azure Platform at Microsoft Corp.”

Capella is a managed DBaaS that offloads database management, lowers the total cost of ownership, delivers database flexibility for developers and enables performance at scale to build modern applications. Capella’s new user experience — inspired by popular developer-centric tools like GitHub — and the familiarity of SQL++ as the query language lowers the learning curve for developers and other users across organizations.

Couchbase Capella customer benefits include development flexibility; cost efficiency at scale; mobile and IoT app synchronization; high availability and automated scaling; and multi-cloud.

“We are investing heavily in making Capella more accessible than ever before to give developers and organizations a cloud database platform to power their most mission-critical applications,” said Scott Anderson, senior vice president of product management and business operations at Couchbase. “Providing flexibility to go across cloud service providers is a huge advantage in today’s multi- and hybrid-cloud world. By extending Capella to Azure, we can better support our customers as they deploy innovative applications on the cloud of their choice.”

Couchbase Capella on Azure will be generally available in the first quarter of 2023.
