I am far from being an expert on Couchbase Server, but I believe this is improved in version 3.0 (to be released imminently.) It has much better support for buckets whose contents are larger than their RAM allocation. Also, you might consider CBGB <https://github.com/couchbaselabs/cbgb>, which is an experimental Couchbase-compatible server designed for multi-tenancy: it doesn't scale as well to high demand, but it scales extremely well to lots of buckets. It's not an official product, but it's stable enough that we used it for the (now retired) couchbasecloud hosted system. > I've modified the Sync Gateway to give multi-tenancy control.

That sounds interesting, but I would imagine that it's difficult to do and requires a lot of changes to the code. Did you make sure to change the views, the change cache, etc.? > Because the sync gateway is light on resource usage, I figure I can then run > multiple sync gateways on a server to give me the multi-tenancy I need for > serving my apps. You don't have to run multiple gateways; each one can already support any number of independent databases, each with its own user accounts. —Jens -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Couchbase Mobile" group.
