Amazon Web Services (AWS) announced the general availability of Amazon Q, a generative artificial intelligence (AI)-powered assistant for accelerating software development and leveraging companies’ internal data.
Couchbase announced the general availability of Capella iQ, a generative AI-powered coding assistant built into its database-as-a-service, Capella.
Code that used to take hours for a developer to write can now be generated in a matter of seconds. Capella iQ boosts developer productivity, reduces unnecessary friction and accelerates time to market for applications.
Capella iQ enables developers to write SQL++ and application-level code more quickly by delivering recommended sample code.
Powered by genAI, Couchbase uses foundation models to add intelligence to the Capella developer workbench integrated development environment (IDE).
Using NLP, Capella iQ easily generates code, sample data sets and unit tests.
Capella iQ speeds up a variety of common tasks to accelerate the development cycle in natural language. Some examples are:
- Write SQL: iQ creates SQL++ queries to interact with data
- Create test data: iQ accelerates development projects by creating sample data
- Suggests indexes: iQ helps build the right indexes to reduce query times
- Generate SDK-specific program: iQ assists in creating code for application development around the query. Supporting: C, .NET, Go. Java, Kotlin, Node.js, PHP, Python, Ruby, Scala
- Data from queries can be visualized as JSON docs, tables, and charts to accelerate insights
