I wanted to know if there are plans to add Couchbase support. I just read that the new Coucbase Server is based on Memcache. According to their documentations, http://www.couchbase.com/develop, it seems like the PECL memcache library is compatible with it memcache.

Has there been any thoughts to extend this module to support Couchbase?

I am co-maintaining the Couchbase module (http://drupal.org/project/couchbase), which we wrote for CouchDB single server 1.2. That was all REST API driven. With the Couchbase and Membase merge, it might make sense for this module to extend Couchbase?

Is there a big difference between memcache and couchbase for drupal cache?

It appears from the standpoint of this module, it works out of the box. Had the experience with a recent client in this setup.

Just for the record, although couchbase has a memcache compatibility layer, leveraging Couchbase natively - including native capabilities - will make usage much more efficient.

Specially in D8 where stuff like cache tags can be moved to Couchbase.

Here is a D8 module that supports that integration:
