Using Docker compose for automated provisioning

You can deploy multiple Docker containers using a script.

Use Docker Compose to automate bootstrapping a multi-node cluster with DataStax Enterprise (DSE), DSE OpsCenter, and DataStax Studio. Use the following links to get sample compose.yml files for different tools and services:

Example

Three node configuration

When creating multiple nodes, use the node parameter to bootstrap one node at a time. For example, the first node is node0, the second node is node1, and the third node is node2.

Wait for each node to finish bootstrapping before running docker-compose for the next node.

# Make sure node1, the seed node, is up before bringing up other nodes
docker compose -f docker-compose.yml up -d --scale node0
# Wait until the seed node is up before bringing up more nodes
(docker compose logs -f node1 &) | grep -q "Created default superuser role"
docker compose -f docker-compose.yml up -d --scale node1
(docker compose logs -f node1 &) | grep -q "Created default superuser role"
docker compose -f docker-compose.yml up -d --scale node2

Three node configuration with OpsCenter

docker compose -f docker-compose.yml -f docker-compose.opscenter.yml \
up -d --scale node0
# Make sure node1, the seed node, is up before bringing up other nodes
(docker compose logs -f node0 &) | grep -q "Created default superuser role"
docker compose -f docker-compose.yml up -d --scale node1
(docker compose logs -f node1 &) | grep -q "Created default superuser role"
docker compose -f docker-compose.yml up -d --scale node2

Three node configuration with OpsCenter and Studio

docker compose -f docker-compose.yml -f docker-compose.opscenter.yml \
-f docker-compose.studio.yml up -d --scale node0
# Make sure node1, the seed node, is up before bringing up other nodes
(docker compose logs -f node0 &) | grep -q "Created default superuser role"
docker compose -f docker-compose.yml up -d --scale node1
(docker compose logs -f node1 &) | grep -q "Created default superuser role"
docker compose -f docker-compose.yml up -d --scale node2

Single node configuration with Studio

docker compose -f docker-compose.yml -f docker-compose.studio.yml \
up -d --scale node0

Single node configuration

To bootstrap a single-node cluster, use the docker run command and specify the version of DSE to install, plus any additional options.

docker run -e DS_LICENSE=accept -d cr.dtsx.io/datastax/dse-server:version \
options
