Both couchbase and mongoDB are key/value document stores, although mongoDB is developer friendly and easy to deploy, couchbase for multi center deployment and replication seems easier to work with at web scale sizes, more stable and easier than mongoDB, being a little more complex. scalability and deployment is easier on couchbase. On mongoDB you can achieve the same results, but need to carefully design your deployment and apply proper sharding with setting up the right replica sets to be effective.
