Couchbase Announces Capella Free Tier
September 05, 2024

Couchbase announced Capella Free Tier, a free developer environment designed to empower developers to evaluate and explore products and test new features without time constraints.

Couchbase simplifies learning, developing and deploying applications on Capella into production, and provides developers with the access and convenience they need to build upon applications without worrying about an end date.

With the introduction of Capella Free Tier, Couchbase is removing friction points for developers by allowing them to learn Capella at their own pace, retain work and continually evaluate and expand to new applications. With Capella iQ, developers leverage AI-powered code generation built into the Capella Workbench and popular IDEs like Visual Studio Code to accelerate application development. Developers also have access to numerous community-supported extensions such as cbshell 1.0, which supports vector search, a new object-relational mapping library for Ruby and plugins such as Ionic Capacitor for Couchbase Lite, which simplifies cross-platform mobile development. By unlocking free access for developers to Capella and embracing these community-based extensions, Couchbase helps accelerate both personal and professional projects.

“Developers want to kick the tires on any software they plan to use before committing, particularly when it comes to database solutions,” said Kate Holterhoff, Senior Analyst at RedMonk. “By offering a free tier to Capella, Couchbase acknowledges the tinkering spirit that motivates these important builders and creators.”

Capella Free Tier will be available in September.
