Notes about Databases

Please keep in mind that each database contains its own system collections,which need to be set up when a database is created. This will make the creationof a database take a while.

Replication is configured on a per-database level, meaning that any replication logging or applying for a new database mustbe configured explicitly after a new database has been created.

Foxx applicationsare also available only in the context of the database they have been installed in. A new database will only provide access to the system applications shippedwith ArangoDB (that is the web interface at the moment) and no other Foxxapplications until they are explicitly installed for the particular database.
