I am reading about Arangodb and it is what I want to use for a new startup. I am confused on the asynchronous replication. Can I do asynchronous replication without having the enterprise edition? I will likely have multiple machines receiving a read only copy for backup and maybe in different locations. The enterprise edition talks about datacenter to datacenter replication and so I am confused. Can I get a read only remote asynchronous replicant with the community edition?
Thanx
You can do remote replication the way you describe using the documented methods here: https://docs.arangodb.com/3.11/deploy/architecture/replication/
This is not per se an enterprise feature. The enterprise feature dc2dc just does the whole operational setup and runtime for you. Is there a specific reason, why you would like to stay clear of it? It is free for evaluation.
