14.2. Accumulo Data Store Parameters¶

Use the following parameters for an Accumulo data store (required parameters are marked with *):

Parameter	Type	Description
`accumulo.catalog *`	String	The name of the GeoMesa catalog table, including the Accumulo namespace (e.g. “myNamespace.myCatalog”)
`accumulo.instance.name`	String	The name of the Accumulo instance
`accumulo.zookeepers`	String	A comma separated list of zookeeper servers (e.g. “zoo1,zoo2,zoo3” or “localhost:2181”)
`accumulo.user`	String	The username used to connect to Accumulo
`accumulo.password`	String	The password for the Accumulo user
`accumulo.keytab.path`	String	Path to a Kerberos keytab file containing an entry for the specified user
`geomesa.security.auths`	String	Comma-delimited superset of authorizations that will be used for queries via Accumulo
`geomesa.security.force-empty-auths`	Boolean	Forces authorizations to be empty
`geomesa.security.auth-provider`	String	Class name for an `AuthorizationsProvider` implementation
`geomesa.query.audit`	Boolean	Audit queries being run. Queries will be stored in a `<catalog>_queries` table
`geomesa.query.timeout`	String	The max time a query will be allowed to run before being killed. The timeout is specified as a duration, e.g. `1 minute` or `60 seconds`
`geomesa.query.threads`	Integer	The number of threads to use per query
`geomesa.query.loose-bounding-box`	Boolean	Use loose bounding boxes - queries will be faster but may return extraneous results
`accumulo.query.record-threads`	Integer	The number of threads to use for record retrieval
`accumulo.write.threads`	Integer	The number of threads to use for writing records
`geomesa.stats.enable`	Boolean	Toggle collection of statistics for newly created feature types
`accumulo.remote.arrow.enable`	Boolean	Process Arrow encoding in Accumulo tablets servers as a distributed call
`accumulo.remote.bin.enable`	Boolean	Process binary encoding in Accumulo tablets servers as a distributed call
`accumulo.remote.density.enable`	Boolean	Process heatmap encoding in Accumulo tablets servers as a distributed call
`accumulo.remote.stats.enable`	Boolean	Process statistical calculations in Accumulo tablets servers as a distributed call
`geomesa.partition.scan.parallel`	Boolean	For partitioned schemas, execute scans in parallel instead of sequentially

Note

It is an error to specify both accumulo.password and accumulo.keytab.path.

Instead of specifying the cluster connection explicitly, an appropriate accumulo-client.properties may be added to the classpath. See the Accumulo documentation for information on the necessary configuration keys. Any explicit data store parameters will take precedence over the configuration file.

14.2.1. Programmatic Access¶

An instance of an Accumulo data store can be obtained through the normal GeoTools discovery methods, assuming that the GeoMesa code is on the classpath:

Map<String, String> parameters = new HashMap<>;
parameters.put("accumulo.instance.name", "myInstance");
parameters.put("accumulo.zookeepers", "myZoo1,myZoo2,myZoo3");
parameters.put("accumulo.user", "myUser");
parameters.put("accumulo.password", "myPassword");
parameters.put("accumulo.catalog", "myNamespace.myTable");
org.geotools.api.data.DataStore dataStore =
    org.geotools.api.data.DataStoreFinder.getDataStore(parameters);

More information on using GeoTools can be found in the GeoTools user guide.
