How to Choose Between DBaaS Providers in 2026?

ESDS Database as a Service represents India's first enterprise-grade DBaaS platform combining Couchbase's distributed NoSQL technology with ESDS Sovereign Cloud infrastructure. The architecture addresses specific requirements of regulated sector organizations requiring performance, compliance, and operational consistency.
Architectural Foundation
Built on proven technology delivered through sovereign infrastructure, ESDS DBaaS supports real-time transactional workloads, AI-driven systems, search-intensive applications, analytics use cases, and distributed edge environments without operational complexity of self-managed database infrastructure.
The platform delivers:
• Cloud-native performance and horizontal scalability through distributed architecture designed for consistent performance as data volumes and application usage grow. Multi-Dimensional Scaling enables independent scaling of data, query, index, and analytics services, optimizing resource utilization and cost efficiency.
• Developer productivity through SQL++ for JSON, enabling query of semi-structured data using familiar SQL syntax while maintaining NoSQL flexibility. This reduces development friction and accelerates application delivery.
• Zero-ETL analytics capabilities running directly on operational JSON data without separate export processes, enabling near real-time insights and simplified data pipelines. Organizations eliminate architectural complexity of maintaining separate analytical databases.
• Integrated vector and full-text search supporting semantic search, retrieval-augmented generation workflows, and AI-driven application features natively within the platform, eliminating separate search infrastructure requirements.
• Offline-first mobile and edge support for applications operating in distributed or low-connectivity environments, with data synchronization across cloud, devices, and peer nodes supporting India's diverse connectivity landscape.
• Sovereign Assurance and Compliance Alignment
