The following page has been changed by DaleJohnson: http://wiki.apache.org/couchdb/ConfiguringDistributedSystems New page: This is a stub for a page to discuss how to actually get couchdb running in a distributed fashion. * I see that there is replication via the 'replication' functionality on the http://localhost:5984/_utils console interface, but how does one distribute a database across, say 10 hosts? * Is there a way to specify the number of copies of a piece of data? (Presumes not all hosts have copies of each piece of data) * Is there a piece of this that can be configured in the couch.ini file, such than when the topology changes (ie. server add or removal) that things can be put back into sync?
