You're probably aware of the new Cross Data Center Replication (XDCR) feature of Couchbase Server 2.0.

Early this morning, Couchbase 2.0 was officially released. The release is a big step forward for the Couchbase open source project and, in my opinion, has the potential to shake up the NoSQL landscape. You can read all about the new features and capabilities in other blog posts but I’d like to focus here on why I think this release is significant.
Let me start-off with the big news first. Couchbase Server 2.0 is here! I am thrilled to announce the availability of this major release.

You can now use Couchbase either as a key-value store or a document database based on your application requirements.
