Couchbase Lite (Enterprise Edition)

Couchbase Lite is an embedded NoSQL JSON document database that runs on mobile and edge devices. It stores data locally and provides full CRUD operations, SQL++ querying, and built‑in encryption, allowing applications to function without a network connection. The library supports bi‑directional synchronization through Sync Gateway, enabling data to be kept consistent with Couchbase Server or directly between devices via peer‑to‑peer sync.

The Enterprise Edition offers the same core capabilities with additional features such as vector search for on‑device AI and retrieval‑augmented generation scenarios, as well as enhanced conflict resolution and revision control. Its lightweight footprint makes it suitable for constrained environments, while the secure local storage protects sensitive information.

Developers can integrate the C and C++ SDKs into applications on macOS and other supported platforms, using familiar APIs and SQL++ to accelerate development. The product is positioned for use cases that require offline‑first or local‑first architectures, including mobile apps, edge computing, and AI workloads that need on‑device semantic search.
