Well I am pretty sure that Andy, Jens or the team would be better suited to provide a holistic answer but it works fine for us. What the ELB does is to terminate any connection after a certain time no matter whether the client trying to keep it alive, by default 60sec. That is usually not an issue for typical use cases but long-poll applications such as Couchbase Sync Gateway or stuff like XMPP have a problem with that. They don't like being terminated.
Couchbase Mobile however does a good job of reconnecting when needed - we don't see any errors. But it is also important to keep in mind that our solution is very light on sync - most data resides on the mobile end. Nginx on the other is a lot more sophisticated but also more complex to maintain. Of course this all could be wrong if the CB team has a different opinion...
