I checked all the documentation of couch DB. There is no mention of the system requirements. I want to install CouchDB on AWS nano machine and wondering if it is possible.
Question What are the CoupchDB minimum system requirements? (RAM, CPU, disk)

We run CouchDB in production on AWS using Docker. In general, we have found that we need at least a t2.medium for each node to keep up with the CPU and memory demands, i.e. each t2.medium instance has 2 CPU cores and 4GB memory.
We are planning on releasing a more in-depth analysis shortly.
I have not seen any official minimum requirements. I have the smallest DigitalOcean droplet running Ubuntu Server with the CouchDB 2.1.1 on it (and it previously ran version 1.6.1). It works well, but is only used as a test machine for a development project. The spec is one CPU, 512mb RAM and 20gb SSD disk.
