We don't have any examples that implement P2P sync. Couchbase Lite supports syncing with any other instance if you can provide a URL (i.e. IP address, port and database name) for it, but there's a lot of extra work necessary to get to that point -- you need a discovery system to locate other peers, and if you're not on the same LAN you'll need a way to get through NATs and firewalls to establish a connection. We don't provide any of that in 1.0, but it's an area we're very interested in and hope to grow into. I know there are some developers on this list who are working on P2P technologies based on CBL; anyone want to speak up? --Jens -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Couchbase Mobile" group.
