My database is set up on 127.0.0.1 in /etc/riak/app.config does it mean > it can only be accessed from localhost? We recommend that production Riak deployments run with at least 5 nodes. There are several reasons why we recommend 5, and they're outlined pretty well in this post. [0] If you want Riak to only be accessible via the local host, then binding to 127.0.0.1 works. If you want to communicate with Riak from other nodes, bind to an address that is accessible to the other nodes, or 0.0.0.0. > 2) Say later on I'm going to have more seperate machines to run my game > server nodes.

Any node in a Riak cluster can coordinate requests for any other Riak node that is responsible for the data you're reading/writing. That said, it's common for users to deploy Riak clusters behind a load balancer that evenly distributes requests to each node in the cluster. [1] Hope that helps. > What do you guys think?
