Couchbase Integrates with NVIDIA NIM Microservices, Accelerating AI Development, Flexibility, and Efficiency

Couchbase, Inc., the developer data platform for critical applications in our AI world, is announcing that its Capella AI Model Services—a set of AI services designed to support AI-enabled agent development and deployment workflows—has integrated NVIDIA NIM microservices. Powered by NVIDIA AI Enterprise, Capella AI Model Services will deliver  Couchbase customers a cost-effective solution for accelerating agent delivery.

Capella AI Model Services address various GenAI inhibitors—including latency, security, trustworthiness, validation, cost, and performance—while accelerating agent development, according to Couchbase. By bringing AI closer to data, Capella enables enterprises to seamlessly power their AI workloads with GPU-accelerated performance and enterprise-grade security.

Capella AI Model Services streamlines agent application development and operations by keeping models and data co-located in a unified platform—ultimately allowing agentic operations to be facilitated as they happen, in real time.

Integration with NVIDIA NIM microservices not only enhances Capella’s agentic AI and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) capabilities but also affords Couchbase customers the flexibility to choose the model appropriate for their use case. This is achieved without sacrificing security or output quality; NVIDIA NeMo Guardrails drive AI development while persisting policies and safeguards against AI hallucinations.

Additionally, this collaboration forwards cost efficiency, providing Couchbase customers with a balanced solution that accelerates agent delivery while maximizing resource utilization and performance.

“Enterprises require a unified and highly performant data platform to underpin their AI efforts and support the full application lifecycle—from development through deployment and optimization,” said Matt McDonough, SVP of product and partners at Couchbase. “By integrating NVIDIA NIM microservices into Capella AI Model Services, we’re giving customers the flexibility to run their preferred AI models in a secure and governed way, while providing better performance for AI workloads and seamless integration of AI with transactional and analytical data. Capella AI Services allow customers to accelerate their RAG and agentic applications with confidence, knowing they can scale and optimize their applications as business needs evolve.”

“Integrating NVIDIA AI software into Couchbase’s Capella AI Model Services enables developers to quickly deploy, scale, and optimize applications,” said Anne Hecht, senior director of enterprise software at NVIDIA. "Access to NVIDIA NIM microservices further accelerates AI deployment with optimized models, delivering low-latency performance and security for real-time intelligent applications.”
