Capella iQ Will Use Natural Language Processing to Enable Developers to Build Modern Applications Faster and Easier in Capella

Couchbase Inc., the cloud database platform company, announced it is introducing generative AI capabilities into its Database-as-a-Service Couchbase Capella™ to significantly enhance developer productivity and accelerate time to market for modern applications. The new capability called Capella iQ enables developers to write SQL++ and application-level code more quickly by delivering recommended sample code. Couchbase also announced additional Capella updates that further enhance the developer experience, increase efficiency and ease operations.

Managing the full lifecycle of an application puts pressure on developers and adds friction to their workflow, which can slow down productivity. At the same time, developer productivity has never been more important given the demand for and potential of AI applications. Powered by generative AI, Capella iQ uses foundation models to add intelligence to the Capella developer workbench integrated development environment (IDE). With Capella iQ, developers can use natural language to quickly and easily generate code, sample datasets and unit tests. Capella iQ also advises on index creation, search syntax and other programmatic access to Capella. Leveraging generative AI to build and test applications quicker in Capella delivers higher productivity and quality, resulting in faster time to market.

“The familiarity of SQL++ as the query language was already a great tool to help developers who are new to Capella get up to speed quickly. Capella iQ will take those productivity gains even further and save my team and me tons of time,” said Brant Burnett, systems architect at CenterEdge. “Having a co-pilot like Capella iQ in the developer workbench makes it so much faster for teams to build modern apps on Capella so developers can do what they love, which is building amazing apps.”

“Code that used to take hours for a developer to write will now be generated in a matter of minutes in sample sets from Capella iQ,” said Scott Anderson, SVP of product management and business operations at Couchbase. “This makes developers more efficient when building modern apps, ultimately accelerating innovation for customers. By incorporating generative AI into our fully managed DBaaS, we are making it easier for developers to get started with Capella and significantly boost their productivity.”
