A hands-on workshop demonstrating key Couchbase features using local Docker clusters. This project provides practical exercises for XDCR (Cross Data Center Replication), alternative IP address configuration, server certificate setup, and more.
This workshop sets up multiple Couchbase clusters locally to explore and experiment with various Couchbase features. Using Docker Compose, it creates three separate Couchbase clusters (A, B, C) with 3 nodes each, simulating real-world multi-datacenter and multi-node deployments.
- 🔧 Easy Setup: Quick deployment using Docker Compose
- 🌐 Multi-Cluster Environment: Three independent Couchbase clusters (9 nodes total)
- 🔄 XDCR Scenarios: Bidirectional replication, filtering, and advanced configurations
- 🌍 Alternative IP Addresses: Configure and test alternative node IPs for cluster communication
- 🔒 Server Certificate Setup: Secure clusters with custom server certificates
- 📚 Step-by-Step Guides: Detailed instructions for each feature
- 🛠️ Automated Initialization: All-in-one script to bootstrap clusters and configure buckets
- 🏠 Local Development: Runs entirely on localhost using host aliases
- Clone the repository and navigate to the project directory
- Add host entries:
echo "127.0.0.1 a1.dev a2.dev a3.dev b1.dev b2.dev b3.dev c1.dev c2.dev c3.dev" >> /etc/hosts - Initialize Couchbase clusters:
./setup.sh - Access web consoles at
https://a1.dev:40011,https://b1.dev:40021,https://c1.dev:40031
- Understand and configure XDCR
- Set up and use alternative IP addresses in Couchbase clusters
- Configure server certificates for secure communication
- Explore other advanced Couchbase features
