title: Atomic counters in Couchbase
body: <p>I wanted to know if Couchbase support consistent incremental Counters. From what I've read in <a href="http://www.couchbase.com/docs/couchbase-sdk-ruby-1.0/couchbase-sdk-ruby-update-incr.html" rel="nofollow">this doc</a>, it does not, it just encapsulates a read/write operation so you won't need to do it yourself. Of course this doesn't work for me because the data might change since the time you read the data from the database. </p>
