Use case

SQL Server & MongoDB → Couchbase

THE CHALLENGE

## Fragmented databases blocked a single access point for citizen services.

A prominent government entity in Mexico — education, health, culture and sports — needed to modernize a fragmented database estate and unify citizen-facing services.

-   **Decommission MongoDB** Gradually decommission MongoDB as Couchbase becomes the operational store.
-   **Unlock SQL Server data** Bring data previously segregated in Microsoft SQL Server to citizens.
-   **One access point** A unique solution that could become the single access point for every citizen-facing service.
-   **Heterogeneous stack** Microsoft SQL Server 2018, MongoDB 5, and Couchbase 7 had to run together during the transition.

The solution

## Couchbase plus Gluesync for a phased modernization.

The government adopted Couchbase NoSQL for scalability and MOLO17 Gluesync for real-time bi-directional synchronization, enabling a smooth transition onto a modern platform.
