Couchbase was included in the Operational DBMS Magic Quadrant for 2018, but fell short on the license revenue requirement. The company's revenue grew 60% year over year and received several recognitions, including being voted best in-memory database by readers of DBTA. Couchbase also launched two major releases of its flagship product and earned "Top Rated" status on peer reviews site TrustRadius. Despite not making this year's MQ, the company is still visible through other Gartner reports, such as the State of the Operational DBMS Market, 2018, and the "Other Vendors to Consider" report. Additionally, Couchbase will be featured in Forrester Wave on NoSQL Databases, due out in March 2019.
