Deploy Couchbase Server Using AWS Marketplace

    +
    Couchbase partners with Amazon to provide a packaged solution on AWS Marketplace. This solution is based on Amazon CloudFormation templates that incorporate the latest features and best practices for deploying Couchbase Server on Amazon Web Services.

    Couchbase Server on AWS Marketplace provides one of the fastest and easiest ways to get up and running on Amazon Web Services (AWS). At the core of this experience are Amazon CloudFormation templates that are developed in close collaboration with Amazon in order to adopt the latest features and best practices. Amazon Machine Images (AMIs) also provide the information required to launch an instance of a virtual server in AWS, thus making it easier and faster to deploy Couchbase Server without having to create and manage schemas, or normalize, shard, and tune the database.

    Couchbase is available through AWS Marketplace with hourly pricing, or through a Bring Your Own License (BYOL) model.

    Before You Begin

    • You need an AWS account. If you don’t have one, sign up for one before proceeding.

    • You should review the best practices for deploying Couchbase Server on AWS.

    Deploying Couchbase Server

    The CloudFormation templates are provided as a starting point and may be customized as needed.

    1. Log in to your account on the Amazon Web Services Marketplace, search for Couchbase and select Couchbase Enterprise Edition. Alternately, you can click here to go to the Couchbase Server product page directly.

    2. The Couchbase Server product page provides a quick overview of the product offering and useful links. Click Continue to Subscribe.

    7. You will be redirected to the AWS CloudFormation Console where you must create a stack. A stack is a group of related resources that you manage as a single unit.

      1. In the Specify template section, choose the template source as the Amazon S3 URL and then click Next.

      3. Enter the Network Configuration/Access parameters, specifically the VPC where you would like to deploy the software, list of subnets, CIDR range to permit ssh access to the EC2 instances where the software is installed and the key-value pair to access the EC2 instances.

      4. Enter the Core Server Configuration parameters. Other than specifying the database user name and password, you can choose to use the default values defined in the AWS CloudFormation template or edit them.

        The user name and password will be required to log in to the Couchbase Server Web Console later.

    Logging in to Your Couchbase Cluster

    After the deployment is completed, you can explore the resources created from the AWS EC2 dashboard.

    aws console ec2 dashboard

    Click Instances(running) under Resources to view the running instances of Couchbase Server. You can select a particular instance to view details such as the instance ID, state, IPv4 Public IP, and so on.

    aws console ec2 instances

    1. This step describes how to log in to the Couchbase Server Web Console.

      1. From the AWS EC2 console, select a running Couchbase Server Instance and copy the IPv4 Public IP.

        aws console ec2 couchbase server instance public ip

      2. Open a browser tab and enter the copied IPv4 Public IP along with port 8091 as <ipv4-public-ip>:8091 to open the Couchbase Server Web Console.

      3. Enter the database administrator user name and password you configured when creating the stack to sign in.
