15.2. 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.

15.2.1. 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.
