Configuring DataStax Studio

The default configuration should not require adjusting. You can configure different aspects of how Studio runs.

Studio is a desktop application that automatically saves your work. The default configuration should not require adjusting. However, you can configure different aspects of how Studio runs, including changing the httpBindAddress.

Important: Changing the httpBindAddress setting from the default (localhost) can pose a security risk as users on external machines can gain access to Studio notebooks and the data in the DSE clusters those notebooks are connected to. Studio is designed to be used as a desktop application. Distributed deployment introduces potential security risks.
To change JVM settings, see Specifying JVM settings for DataStax Studio.
