Multi-datacenter docs #733

Open mglukhovsky opened 9 years ago

mglukhovsky commented 9 years ago

Unless I'm missing something, I don't see a clear document labeled "Multi-datacenter options". Ideally this article would describe how to use server tags effectively as a pattern for building multi-datacenter clusters.

The "Sharding and replication" document has now become "Scaling, sharding and replication"; there's a section in there which explicitly references multi-datacenter support. We might consider expanding it rather than having a separate document.

There's an "improve cluster management documentation" ticket open as well, #631. Given that we do have documentation that explicitly addresses scaling in its tile now, I'd like to go ahead and close this ticket. I know the phrase "multi-datacenter" doesn't appear in the sidebar, but it doesn't appear in MongoDB's doc sidebar, either (or MySQL's, for that matter); I think users will be able to find it. We'll also reference it in the cluster management docs when they're written.
