We have an ELB setup with Sync Gateway and DB - and its working fine. ELB is pretty limited when it comes to fine tuning and overall features but it works out of the box vs Nginx is much more sophisticated but requires maintenance as well as more EC2 instances which cost money. So it really comes down what you want...
Only one slight disadvantage is ELB's inability to handle long polling properly. It times out after 60sec which is configurable up to 1hr but still it drops the connection. Couchbase however reconnects fine whenever needed... Our setup: - 2 sync gateway behind an ELB in a public subnet - 3 databases in a private subnet (call us old-fashioned :) ) On Thursday, November 20, 2014 3:08:13 AM UTC-8, Steve wrote: > > OK, thanks Andy.
