# Cassandra Storage Backend
|
||
|
||
The Cassandra storage backend is used to persist Vault's data in an [Apache
|
||
Cassandra][cassandra] cluster.
|
||
|
||
- **No High Availability** – the Cassandra storage backend does not support high
|
||
availability.
|
||
|
||
- **Community Supported** – the Cassandra storage backend is supported by the
|
||
community. While it has undergone review by HashiCorp employees, they may not
|
||
be as knowledgeable about the technology. If you encounter problems with it,
|
||
you may be referred to the original author.
|
||
|
||
```hcl
|
||
storage "cassandra" {
|
||
hosts = "localhost"
|
||
consistency = "LOCAL_QUORUM"
|
||
protocol_version = 3
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
The Cassandra storage backend does not automatically create the keyspace and
|
||
table. This sample configuration can be used as a guide, but you will want to
|
||
ensure the keyspace [replication options][replication-options]
|
||
are appropriate for your cluster:
|
||
|
||
```cql
|
||
CREATE KEYSPACE "vault" WITH REPLICATION = {
|
||
'class': 'SimpleStrategy',
|
||
'replication_factor': 1
|
||
};
|
||
|
||
CREATE TABLE "vault"."entries" (
|
||
bucket text,
|
||
key text,
|
||
value blob,
|
||
PRIMARY KEY (bucket, key)
|
||
) WITH CLUSTERING ORDER BY (key ASC);
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## `cassandra` Parameters
|
||
|
||
- `hosts` `(string: "127.0.0.1")` – Comma-separated list of Cassandra hosts to
|
||
connect to.
|
||
|
||
- `keyspace` `(string: "vault")` Cassandra keyspace to use.
|
||
|
||
- `table` `(string: "entries")` – Table within the `keyspace` in which to store
|
||
data.
|
||
|
||
- `consistency` `(string: "LOCAL_QUORUM")` Consistency level to use when
|
||
reading/writing data. If set, must be one of `"ANY"`, `"ONE"`, `"TWO"`,
|
||
`"THREE"`, `"QUORUM"`, `"ALL"`, `"LOCAL_QUORUM"`, `"EACH_QUORUM"`, or
|
||
`"LOCAL_ONE"`.
|
||
|
||
- `protocol_version` `(int: 2)` Cassandra protocol version to use.
|
||
|
||
- `username` `(string: "")` – Username to use when authenticating with the
|
||
Cassandra hosts.
|
||
|
||
- `password` `(string: "")` – Password to use when authenticating with the
|
||
Cassandra hosts.
|
||
|
||
- `initial_connection_timeout` `(int: 0)` - A timeout in seconds to wait until an initial connection is established
|
||
with the Cassandra hosts. If not set, default value from Cassandra driver(gocql) will be used - 600ms
|
||
|
||
- `connection_timeout` `(int: 0)` - A timeout in seconds for each query.
|
||
If not set, default value from Cassandra driver(gocql) will be used - 600ms
|
||
|
||
- `simple_retry_policy_retries` `(int: 0)` - Useful for Cassandra cluster with several nodes.
|
||
If current master node is down request will be retried on the next node `simple_retry_policy_retries`
|
||
times, and the client won't get an error.
|
||
|
||
- `tls` `(int: 0)` – If `1`, indicates the connection with the Cassandra hosts
|
||
should use TLS.
|
||
|
||
- `pem_bundle_file` `(string: "")` - Specifies a file containing a
|
||
certificate and private key; a certificate, private key, and issuing CA
|
||
certificate; or just a CA certificate.
|
||
|
||
- `pem_json_file` `(string: "")` - Specifies a JSON file containing a certificate
|
||
and private key; a certificate, private key, and issuing CA certificate;
|
||
or just a CA certificate.
|
||
|
||
- `tls_skip_verify` `(int: 0)` - If `1`, then TLS host verification
|
||
will be disabled for Cassandra. Defaults to `0`.
|
||
|
||
- `tls_min_version` `(string: "tls12")` - Minimum TLS version to use. Accepted
|
||
values are `tls10`, `tls11`, `tls12` or `tls13`. Defaults to `tls12`.
