CouchDB is a free and open-source document-oriented NoSQL database written in Erlang. It allows you to run a single logical database server on any number of servers or VPSes. You can use CouchDB as a single node or clustered database. It stores and collects data in JSON-based document formats. If you are looking for high-performance NoSQL database systems then CouchDB is the best choice for you. Installing CouchDB on Ubuntu 20.04 should take less than 10 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_65 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-transparent ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\">Table of Contents<\/p>\n<label for=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-item-662e9bcb011b4\" class=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-label\"><span class=\"ez-toc-cssicon\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/label><input type=\"checkbox\"  id=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-item-662e9bcb011b4\"  aria-label=\"Toggle\" \/><nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/blog\/how-to-install-couchdb-on-ubuntu-20-04\/#Prerequisites\" title=\"Prerequisites\">Prerequisites<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/blog\/how-to-install-couchdb-on-ubuntu-20-04\/#Step-1-Log-in-to-the-Server-Update-the-Server-OS-Packages\" title=\"Step 1: Log in to the Server &amp; Update the Server OS Packages\">Step 1: Log in to the Server &amp; Update the Server OS Packages<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/blog\/how-to-install-couchdb-on-ubuntu-20-04\/#Step-2-Install-Required-Dependencies\" title=\"Step 2 : Install Required Dependencies\">Step 2 : Install Required Dependencies<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-4\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/blog\/how-to-install-couchdb-on-ubuntu-20-04\/#Step-3-Install-CouchDB\" title=\"Step 3 : Install CouchDB\">Step 3 : Install CouchDB<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-5\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/blog\/how-to-install-couchdb-on-ubuntu-20-04\/#Step-4-Verify-the-CouchDB-Installation\" title=\"Step 4 : Verify the CouchDB Installation\">Step 4 : Verify the CouchDB Installation<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-6\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/blog\/how-to-install-couchdb-on-ubuntu-20-04\/#Step-5-Access-CouchDB-Web-UI\" title=\"Step 5 : Access CouchDB Web UI\">Step 5 : Access CouchDB Web UI<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-7\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/blog\/how-to-install-couchdb-on-ubuntu-20-04\/#Step-6-Manage-CouchDB-Service\" title=\"Step 6 : Manage CouchDB Service\">Step 6 : Manage CouchDB Service<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-prerequisites\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Prerequisites\"><\/span>Prerequisites<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>An Ubuntu 20.04 VPS (we\u2019ll be using our SSD 2 VPS plan)<\/li><li>Access to the root user account (or access to an admin account with root privileges)<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-step-1-log-in-to-the-server-update-the-server-os-packages\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step-1-Log-in-to-the-Server-Update-the-Server-OS-Packages\"><\/span>Step 1: Log in to the Server &amp; Update the Server OS Packages<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>First, log in to your Ubuntu 20.04 server via SSH as the root user:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\">ssh root@IP_Address -p Port_number<\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>You will need to replace &#8216;IP_Address&#8217; and &#8216;Port_number&#8217; with your server&#8217;s respective IP address and SSH port number. Additionally, replace &#8216;root&#8217; with the username of the admin account if necessary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before starting, you have to make sure that all Ubuntu OS packages installed on the server are up to date.
