Reference configuration

The following is a copy of the reference.conf file matching the version of this documentation. It is packaged in the java-driver-core JAR artifact, and used at runtime to provide the default values for all configuration options (in the sources, it can be found under core/src/main/resources).

See the configuration page for more explanations.

# Reference configuration for the DataStax Java driver for Apache Cassandra®.
#
# Unless you use a custom mechanism to load your configuration (see
# SessionBuilder.withConfigLoader), all the values declared here will be used as defaults. You can
# place your own `application.conf` in the classpath to override them.
#
# Options are classified into two categories:
# - basic: what is most likely to be customized first when kickstarting a new application.
# - advanced: more elaborate tuning options, or "expert"-level customizations.
#
# This file is in HOCON format, see https://github.com/typesafehub/config/blob/master/HOCON.md.

  # BASIC OPTIONS ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  # The contact points to use for the initial connection to the cluster.
  #
  # These are addresses of Cassandra nodes that the driver uses to discover the cluster topology.
  # Only one contact point is required (the driver will retrieve the address of the other nodes
  # automatically), but it is usually a good idea to provide more than one contact point, because if
  # that single contact point is unavailable, the driver cannot initialize itself correctly.
  #
  # This must be a list of strings with each contact point specified as "host:port". If the host is
  # a DNS name that resolves to multiple A-records, all the corresponding addresses will be used. Do
  # not use "localhost" as the host name (since it resolves to both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses on some
  # platforms).
  #
  # Note that Cassandra 3 and below requires all nodes in a cluster to share the same port (see
  # CASSANDRA-7544).
  #
  # Contact points can also be provided programmatically when you build a cluster instance. If both
  # are specified, they will be merged. If both are absent, the driver will default to
  # 127.0.0.1:9042.
  #
  # Required: no
  # Modifiable at runtime: no
  # Overridable in a profile: no
  // basic.contact-points = [ "127.0.0.1:9042", "127.0.0.2:9042" ]

  # A name that uniquely identifies the driver instance created from this configuration. This is
  # used as a prefix for log messages and metrics.
  #
  # If this option is absent, the driver will generate an identifier composed of the letter 's'
  # followed by an incrementing counter. If you provide a different value, try to keep it short to
  # keep the logs readable. Also, make sure it is unique: reusing the same value will not break the
  # driver, but it will mix up the logs and metrics.
  #
  # Required: no
  # Modifiable at runtime: no
  # Overridable in a profile: no
  // basic.session-name = my_session

  # The name of the keyspace that the session should initially be connected to.
  #
  # This expects the same format as in a CQL query: case-sensitive names must be quoted (note that
  # the quotes must be escaped in HOCON format). For example:
  #    session-keyspace = case_insensitive_name
  #    session-keyspace = \"CaseSensitiveName\"
  #
  # If this option is absent, the session won't be connected to any keyspace, and you'll have to
  # either qualify table names in your queries, or use the per-query keyspace feature available in
  # Cassandra 4 and above (see Request.getKeyspace()).
  #
  # This can also be provided programatically in CqlSessionBuilder.
  #
  # Required: no
  # Modifiable at runtime: no
  # Overridable in a profile: no
  // basic.session-keyspace = my_keyspace

  # How often the driver tries to reload the configuration.
  #
  # To disable periodic reloading, set this to 0.
  #
  # Required: yes (unless you pass a different ConfigLoader to the session builder).
  # Modifiable at runtime: yes, the new value will be used after the next time the configuration
  #   gets reloaded.

    # How long the driver waits for a request to complete. This is a global limit on the duration of
    # a session.execute() call, including any internal retries the driver might do.

    # By default, this value is set pretty high to ensure that DDL queries don't time out, in order
    # to provide the best experience for new users trying the driver with the out-of-the-box
    # configuration.
    # For any serious deployment, we recommend that you use separate configuration profiles for DDL
    # and DML; you can then set the DML timeout much lower (down to a few milliseconds if needed).
    #
    # Note that, because timeouts are scheduled on the driver's timer thread, the duration specified
    # here must be greater than the timer tick duration defined by the
    # advanced.netty.timer.tick-duration setting (see below). If that is not the case, timeouts will
    # not be triggered as timely as desired.

    # network roundtrip (the goal being to avoid loading too many results in memory at the same
    # time). If there are more results, additional requests will be used to retrieve them (either
    # automatically if you iterate with the sync API, or explicitly with the async API's
    # fetchNextPage method).
    # If the value is 0 or negative, it will be ignored and the request will not be paged.

    # Required: yes
    # Modifiable at runtime: yes, the new value will be used for requests issued after the change.

  # The policy that decides the "query plan" for each query; that is, which nodes to try as
  # coordinators, and in which order.
  #
  # Required: yes
  # Modifiable at runtime: no (but custom implementations may elect to watch configuration changes
  #   and allow child options to be changed at runtime).
  # Overridable in a profile: yes. Note that the driver creates as few instances as possible: if a
  #   named profile inherits from the default profile, or if two sibling profiles have the exact
  #   same configuration, they will share a single policy instance at runtime.
  #   If there are multiple load balancing policies in a single driver instance, they work together
  #   in the following way:
  #   - each request gets a query plan from its profile's policy (or the default policy if the
  #     request has no profile, or the profile does not override the policy).
  #   - when the policies assign distances to nodes, the driver uses the closest assigned distance
  #     for any given node.
  basic.load-balancing-policy {
    # The class of the policy. If it is not qualified, the driver assumes that it resides in one of
    # the following packages:
    # - com.datastax.oss.driver.internal.core.loadbalancing.
    # - com.datastax.dse.driver.internal.core.loadbalancing.
    #
    # The driver provides three implementations out of the box:
    #
    # - `DefaultLoadBalancingPolicy`: should almost always be used; it requires a local datacenter
    #   to be specified either programmatically when creating the session, or via the configuration
    #   option: datastax-java-driver.basic.load-balancing-policy.local-datacenter. It can also
    #   use a highly efficient slow replica avoidance mechanism, which is by default enabled – see
    #   the option: datastax-java-driver.basic.load-balancing-policy.slow-replica-avoidance.
    # - `DcInferringLoadBalancingPolicy`: similar to `DefaultLoadBalancingPolicy`, but does not
    #   require a local datacenter to be defined, in which case it will attempt to infer the local
    #   datacenter from the provided contact points, if possible; if that fails, it will throw an
    #   error during session initialization. This policy is intended mostly for ETL tools and
    #   should not be used by normal applications.
    # - `BasicLoadBalancingPolicy`: similar to `DefaultLoadBalancingPolicy`, but does not have
    #   the slow replica avoidance mechanism. More importantly, it is the only policy capable of
    #   operating without local datacenter defined, in which case it will consider nodes in the
    #   cluster in a datacenter-agnostic way. Beware that this could cause spikes in
    #   cross-datacenter traffic! This policy is provided mostly as a starting point for users
    #   wishing to implement their own load balancing policy; it should not be used as is in normal
    #   applications.
    #
    # You can also specify a custom class that implements LoadBalancingPolicy and has a public
    # constructor with two arguments: the DriverContext and a String representing the profile name.
    class = DefaultLoadBalancingPolicy

    # The datacenter that is considered "local": the default policy will only include nodes from
    # this datacenter in its query plans.
    #
    # When using the default policy, this option can only be absent if you specified no contact
    # points: in that case, the driver defaults to 127.0.0.1:9042, and that node's datacenter is
    # used as the local datacenter. As soon as you provide contact points (either through the
    # configuration or through the session builder), you must define the local datacenter
    # explicitly, and initialization will fail if this property is absent. In addition, all contact
    # points should be from this datacenter; warnings will be logged for nodes that are from a
    # different one.
    #
    # This can also be specified programmatically with SessionBuilder.withLocalDatacenter. If both
    # are specified, the programmatic value takes precedence.
    // local-datacenter = datacenter1

    # The class of a custom node distance evaluator.
    #
    # This option is not required; if present, it must be the fully-qualified name of a class that
    # implements `com.datastax.oss.driver.api.core.loadbalancing.NodeDistanceEvaluator`, and has a
    # public constructor taking two arguments: the DriverContext and a String representing the
    # profile name.
    #
    # Alternatively, you can pass an instance of your distance evaluator to
    # CqlSession.builder().withNodeDistanceEvaluator(). In that case, this option will be ignored.
    #
    # The evaluator will be invoked each time the policy processes a topology or state change. The
    # evaluator's `evaluateDistance` method will be called with the node affected by the change, and
    # the local datacenter name (or null if none is defined). If it returns a non-null distance, the
    # policy will suggest that distance for the node; if the function returns null, the policy will
    # will assign a default distance instead, based on its internal algorithm for computing node
    # distances.
    // evaluator.class=

    # DEPRECATED. Use evaluator.class instead (see above). If both evaluator.class and filter.class
    # are defined, the former wins.
    #
    # A custom filter to include/exclude nodes.
    #
    # This option is not required; if present, it must be the fully-qualified name of a class that
    # implements `java.util.function.Predicate<Node>`, and has a public constructor taking two
    # arguments: the DriverContext and a String representing the profile name.
    #
    # Alternatively, you can pass an instance of your filter to
    # CqlSession.builder().withNodeFilter(). In that case, this option will be ignored.
    #
    # The predicate's `test(Node)` method will be invoked each time the policy processes a
    # topology or state change: if it returns false, the node will be set at distance IGNORED
    # (meaning the driver won't ever connect to it), and never included in any query plan.
    // filter.class=

    # Whether to enable the slow replica avoidance mechanism in DefaultLoadBalancingPolicy.
    #
    # The default policy always moves replicas first in the query plan (if routing information can
    # be determined for the current request). However:
    # - if this option is true, it also applies a custom algorithm that takes the responsiveness and
    #   uptime of each replica into account to order them among each other;
    # - if this option is false, replicas are simply shuffled.
    #
    # If this option is not defined, the driver defaults to true.

    # statements, it is convenient to configure basic.graph.name to avoid repeating it every time.
    # This option allows you to ignore that global graph name, for example in a specific profile.

    # Graph statements behave a bit differently than regular CQL requests (hence this dedicated

      # Micrometer and MicroProfile Metrics.
      #
      # Dropwizard is the default metrics library in the driver; to use Dropwizard, this value
      # should be left to its default, "DefaultMetricsFactory", or set to
      # "DropwizardMetricsFactory". The only difference between the two is that the former will work
      # even if Dropwizard is not present on the classpath (in which case it will silently disable
      # metrics), while the latter requires its presence.
      #
      # To select Micrometer, set the value to "MicrometerMetricsFactory", and to select
      # MicroProfile Metrics, set the value to "MicroProfileMetricsFactory". For these libraries to
      # be used, you will also need to add an additional dependency:
      # - Micrometer: com.datastax.oss:java-driver-metrics-micrometer
      # - MicroProfile: com.datastax.oss:java-driver-metrics-microprofile
      #
      # If you would like to use another metrics library, set this value to the fully-qualified name
      # of a class that implements com.datastax.oss.driver.internal.core.metrics.MetricsFactory.
      #
      # It is also possible to use "NoopMetricsFactory", which forcibly disables metrics completely.
      # In fact, "DefaultMetricsFactory" delegates to "DropwizardMetricsFactory" if Dropwizard is
      # present on the classpath, or to "NoopMetricsFactory" if it isn't.
      #
      # Note: specifying a metrics factory is not enough to enable metrics; for the driver to
      # actually start collecting metrics, you also need to specify which metrics to collect. See

      # driver assumes that it resides in the package com.datastax.oss.driver.internal.core.metrics.
      #
      # The driver ships with two built-in implementations:
      #
      # - DefaultMetricIdGenerator: generates identifiers composed solely of (unique) metric names;
      #   it does not generate tags. It is mostly suitable for use with metrics libraries that do
      #   not support tags, like Dropwizard.
      # - TaggingMetricIdGenerator: generates identifiers composed of name and tags. It is mostly
      #   suitable for use with metrics libraries that support tags, like Micrometer or MicroProfile
      #   Metrics.
      #
      # For example, here is how each one of them generates identifiers for the session metric
      # "bytes-sent", assuming that the session is named "s0":
      # - DefaultMetricIdGenerator: name "s0.bytes-sent", tags: {}.
      # - TaggingMetricIdGenerator: name "session.bytes-sent", tags: {"session":"s0"}
      #
      # Here is how each one of them generates identifiers for the node metric "bytes-sent",
      # assuming that the session is named "s0", and the node's broadcast address is 10.1.2.3:9042:
      # - DefaultMetricIdGenerator: name "s0.nodes.10_1_2_3:9042.bytes-sent", tags: {}.
      # - TaggingMetricIdGenerator: name "nodes.bytes-sent", tags: { "session" : "s0",
      #   "node" : "\10.1.2.3:9042" }
      #

      #
      # For example, if this prefix is set to "cassandra", here is how the session metric
