ArangoDB starter is now bundled with the distribution and can start single server instances as well as cluster. It can use Docker or normal processes.

Have you had a look at the fault-tolerant Foxx demo? https://www.arangodb.com/fault-tolerant-foxx/ https://www.arangodb.com/fault-tolerant-foxx/ Although it showcases fault-tolerance in Foxx specifically, it's really a demo of setting up a cluster with Arango Starter and we wouldn't have been to make Foxx so resilient in 3.2 without the hard work of the cluster team providing the stability underneath.

  The new release looks packed full of features - especially excited about Keylines and encryption. FYI, a minor copy edit suggestion: "HIPPA", should be "HIPAA". -https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Health_Insurance_Portability_and_Accountability_Act https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Health_Insurance_Portability_a...

    Thanks! Yeah, some features we wanted in 3.2 ended up taking longer to polish than anticipated so the rest of us were able to work on features that would have otherwise been scheduled for 3.3 I guess :) I've forwarded your find to the marketing team.

Hi, it's Frank from ArangoDB. We have now included the starter in the package. It is now possible to start a cluster with a single command line. For example, to start a test cluster on a single machine, "arangodb --starter.local" is all you need to type. Starting on 3 machines requires a "arangodb" on the first machine and "arangodb --dataDir=./dbX --join serverX1" on the others.

  Thanks Frank. I wonder if Web Fronted is in order akin to Counchbase setup process. Ultimately CLI tools are of course the king of the Ops world when maintaining clusters. Simple Web app can go long way though for attracting new users. First impression matters. My 2c.
