Set up your ArangoDB Cluster{#CookbookCluster}
|
|
============================

|
Setting up a cluster can be intimidating task. You have to deal with
|
|
firewalls, ports, different types of machines, and the like. ArangoDB
|
|
is prepared to deal with all kinds of different setups and
|
|
requirements.
|
|
|
|
However, in the following section we concentrate on a standard setup
|
|
and show you, how to build a ArangoDB cluster within minutes. If you
|
|
want to dive deeper into the nasty details, you should read about
|
|
@ref Sharding "Sharding".
|
|
|
|
Development Scenario
|
|
--------------------
|
|
|
|
While not really relevant for a prodution environment, a common setup
|
|
for development is to create a cluster on a single maschine. This is
|
|
the easiest of all setups and you should be ready to play with a
|
|
ArangoDB cluster in less than a minute. Even when developing it is
|
|
convenient to create a cluster on a single machine instead of having
|
|
to deal with a lot of servers.
|
|
|
|
###Step 1: Install ArangoDB
|
|
|
|
We assume that you are using a Debian 7.0 system to run ArangoDB. For other
|
|
operation systems, checkout our
|
|
@S_EXTREF_S{https://www.arangodb.org/download,download page}
|
|
and follow the instructions given there.
|
|
|
|
Run the following as root:
|
|
|
|
echo 'deb http://www.arangodb.org/repositories/arangodb2/Debian_7.0/ /' >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/arangodb.list
|
|
apt-get update
|
|
apt-get install arangodb
|
|
|
|
You have now installed ArangoDB on your system. By default, ArangoDB
|
|
runs in standalone mode.
|
|
|
|
###Step 2: Enable the Cluster mode
|
|
|
|
In order to enable the cluster mode, edit the configuration file as root
|
|
|
|
vi /etc/arangodb/arangod.conf
|
|
|
|
and change the lines
|
|
|
|
[cluster]
|
|
disable-dispatcher-kickstarter = yes
|
|
disable-dispatcher-frontend = yes
|
|
|
|
to
|
|
|
|
[cluster]
|
|
disable-dispatcher-kickstarter = no
|
|
disable-dispatcher-frontend = no
|
|
|
|
Save and restart
|
|
|
|
/etc/init.d/arangodb restart
|
|
|
|
###Setp 3: Setup your Cluster
|
|
|
|
You can now configure your cluster. A cluster consists of a number of
|
|
database server and coordinators. A database servers holds you
|
|
precious data, while a coordinator talks to the outside worlds, takes
|
|
requests from clients, distributes them to database server and
|
|
assembles the result.
|
|
|
|
For this example, we assume that are creating three database servers
|
|
and two coordinators.
|
|
|
|
Use your favorite web browser and go to
|
|
|
|
http://localhost:8529/
|
|
|
|
You will now see the cluster management frontend.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
Select `Single Machine` scenario. The next page allows you to enter
|
|
the number of coordinators and database servers.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
Press `Launch Cluster` to fire up the cluster. That's it. Your cluster
|
|
is up and running.
|
|
|
|
###Step 4: Test your Cluster
|
|
|
|
Click on one of the coordinators (e. g. "Claus") to access your
|
|
cluster. In order to create a sharded collection, use `Tools / JS
|
|
Shell` and execute
|
|
|
|
JSH> db._create("users", { numberOfShards: 3 });
|
|
JSH> db.users.save({ _key: "cmeier", firstName: "Claus", lastName: "Meier" });
|
|
|
|
Congratulations! You have created your first sharded collection and
|
|
stored a document in it.
