Case Study: Verizon achieves real-time visibility and scalable management of millions of IoT devices with Couchbase

Verizon - Customer Case Study

Verizon Labs launched ThingSpace, an end-to-end IoT development platform to help enterprises build and manage connected devices at scale. Faced with supporting thousands of developers and millions of operations per second, Verizon needed real-time dashboards, reporting, alerts and customizable data models while overcoming slow, unpredictable performance and rigid schemas from its legacy relational database.

Verizon adopted Couchbase (with Elasticsearch for analytics) to deliver a horizontally scalable, schema-flexible data platform with predictable, sub-millisecond lookups and cross-datacenter replication for continuous availability. The result: real-time, drill‑down dashboards and high-performance search and analytics for customers with millions of devices, faster time-to-market for new features, and cost‑effective scalability to support ThingSpace’s rapid growth.
