Couchbase meetups are back, with six developer meetups held across the globe in November, reaching over 450 developers and covering topics such as data modeling, new features, machine learning, database indexing, DBaaS, SQL, transactions, and Spring Data. The meetups were hosted by Couchbase Community and featured presentations on common developer pain points, a Star Wars LEGO competition, and discussions on privacy regulations and maintaining user-centric applications. The events showcased exciting new features of Capella, Couchbase's fully managed DBaaS platform, and provided opportunities for developers to connect with each other and learn from industry experts.
