When designing and building your Couchbase Server cluster you need to give some thought to a number of different aspects of your server and cluster configuration, including the configuration and hardware of individual nodes, in addition to the overall cluster sizing and distribution configuration.

For more information on the basic design and configuration of your Couchbase Server cluster, see Section 4.1, “Cluster Design Considerations”.

If you are hosting in the cloud, see Section 4.6, “Using Couchbase in the Cloud”.
