Operations
- Start and stop DataStax Enterprise
-
You can start and stop DSE as a service or stand-alone process.
- Add or remove nodes, datacenters, or clusters
-
Information on adding or removing nodes, datacenters, or clusters.
- Back up and restore data using the DSE Backup and Restore Service
-
DSE backs up data by taking a snapshot of all on-disk data files (SSTable files) stored in the data directory.
- Back up and restore data using snapshots
-
DSE backs up data by taking a snapshot of all on-disk data files (SSTable files) stored in the data directory.
- Repair nodes
-
Repairing nodes makes sure data in every replica is consistent with other replicas.
- Monitor a DataStax Enterprise cluster
-
Information about performance characteristics, thread pool, read/write latency, table statistics, compaction metrics, and endpoint metrics.
- Tune the database
-
Tuning Java resources, Bloom filters, and configuring memtable thresholds to improve write performance.
- Configure data caches
-
Configuring caches for optimal performance.
- Configure compaction
-
The compaction process merges keys, combines columns, evicts tombstones, consolidates SSTables, and creates a new index in the merged SSTable.
- Configure compression
-
Compression maximizes the storage capacity of DSE nodes by reducing the volume of data on disk and disk I/O, particularly for read-dominated workloads.
- Test compaction and compression
-
Enable write survey mode.
- Materialized views maintenance guidelines
-
Guidelines for using DSE materialized views.
- Migrate data to DataStax Enterprise
-
Methods to migrate data to DSE solutions.
- Collect node health and indexing status scores
-
Steps to configure node health options, and commands to retrieve health and indexing scores.
- Clear the data from DataStax Enterprise
-
Remove all data from any type of installation.
