Backing Store Settings Reference for Apache Cassandra

To configure Apache Cassandra as a backing store for your TIBCO BusinessEvents® project, you can configure the following connection and security settings in the CDD editor.

With the latest DataStax java driver, the configuration method is changed. Instead of ad hoc configuration classes, the file-based mechanism is used. The reference.conf file is packaged in the java-driver-core JAR artifact, and used at runtime to provide the default values for all configuration options. This allows configuration changes without recompiling the client application.

You can place an application.conf or reference.conf in your application’s classpath to override options selectively.

For more details, see: DataStax Documentation.
