Summary

Couchbase recently sponsored Beeloud and Build 2024 AI Hackathon, a Vancouver-based event aiming to empower humans to create tools and solutions using an engaged community. The event saw 200+ participants form 30 teams, creating over 15 products in a 54-hour sprint, with most leveraging Couchbase's NoSQL database. Participants showcased creative use of Couchbase, with KindSettle emerging as the top winner, utilizing Capella for a child support application. The event highlighted the potential of combining NoSQL databases and AI to build innovative projects, sparking enthusiasm among attendees, including Katie Hong, who expressed her excitement about Couchbase's platform. Couchbase is already looking forward to next year's event, with plans to provide a free trial of its Capella DBaaS.
