Hello

We just started to use Couchbase 1.8 in our test bed cluster. We would like to move couchbase into production however we are stuck with one problem.

How best to load balance couchbase cluster.

Best Regards

I believe the nature of the vbucket system provides "out of the box"
load balancing. If your client is vbucket aware you don't have to do
anything.

If not you can use moxi on the client side and connect your client to
localhost to give you the same effect.

Many thanks indeed. I hope that the PHP client for couchbase is able to do this.

There is a smart client for php. 
It's available here: http://www.couchbase.com/develop/php/current
