Summary

The blog post outlines the process of running Couchbase Server on Amazon Web Services (AWS) using the Couchbase on AWS Marketplace. It describes the steps to launch Couchbase Server 4.0 Community Edition on an m3.large instance, including creating necessary security groups and key pairs, and accessing the Couchbase Web Console through a public DNS address. The post provides details on the configuration and setup, such as the default login credentials, and directs users to additional resources for further guidance. Despite its usefulness for introducing new customers to Couchbase in an economical way, the Community Edition has been withdrawn from new customers on AWS, raising questions about the reasons behind this decision.
