Yes - do remember it's an open source community project and currently support is only through user mailing list

As you should use another db for your apps and KC I would recommend against this and instead use a RDMBS or Mongo.

If you still want to go ahead, bear in mind that we have two separate dbs in KC. Realm (config and clients) and users (user profiles, passwords and role mappings). To add users only you'd have to implement the UserProvider SPI. This is a relatively simple provider to implement, but bear in mind that it's an internal SPI so can be changed without notice.

We do not have the resources to maintain Couchbase DB support so we could not accept this as a contribution and you would have to maintain it yourself.
