Course Overview
About Course
Couchbase is a high-performance, distributed NoSQL document database designed for scalability and low latency. This 40‑hour instructor-led training equips participants with end-to-end proficiency—from architecture, installation, and configuration through advanced querying (N1QL/SQL++), indexing, and real-time performance tuning.
Learners progress through hands-on modules covering JSON data modeling, querying, full-text and analytics, and administration tasks such as RBAC, backup, XDCR, and cluster rebalancing. A major emphasis is placed on labs and realistic projects—participants spend over half their time coding, tuning, and debugging in simulated production environments, including Capella DBaaS and mobile sync scenarios.
The curriculum aligns with Couchbase Academy’s certifications (Associate and Professional levels), offering guided prep for exams across developer, architect, and administrator roles. Training includes expert demonstrations, interactive discussions, live quizzes, case studies, and post-class resources like recorded sessions, lab access, and ongoing support.
By the end, attendees emerge skilled in developing scalable JSON applications, optimizing queries, managing multi-node clusters, and applying best practices in administration. Whether you’re aiming to become a Couchbase-certified developer or handle enterprise-scale deployments, this course delivers a comprehensive, practical pathway to achieving those goals, backed by industry-recognized materials and expert instruction.
