Couchbase

Incubating

Important Capabilities​

CapabilityStatusNotes
Asset Containers✅Enabled by default
Classification✅Optionally enabled via classification.enabled
Data Profiling✅Optionally enabled via configuration profiling.enabled
Detect Deleted Entities✅Optionally enabled via stateful_ingestion.remove_stale_metadata
Domains✅Supported via the domain config field
Platform Instance✅The platform_instance is derived from the configured cluster name
Schema Metadata✅Enabled by default

This plugin extracts the following:

  • Buckets (databases), scopes and collections
  • Schemas for each collection (via schema inference)

The plugin will sample 10,000 documents by default. Use the setting schema_sample_size to define how many documents will be sampled per collection.
