AWS::Cassandra::Keyspace - AWS CloudFormation (original) (raw)

You can use the AWS::Cassandra::Keyspace resource to create a new keyspace in Amazon Keyspaces (for Apache Cassandra). For more information, see Create a keyspace in the Amazon Keyspaces Developer Guide.

Syntax

To declare this entity in your AWS CloudFormation template, use the following syntax:

Properties

ClientSideTimestampsEnabled

Indicates whether client-side timestamps are enabled (true) or disabled (false) for all tables in the keyspace. To add a Region to a single-Region keyspace with at least one table, the value must be set to true. After you've enabled client-side timestamps for a table, you can’t disable it again.

Required: No

Type: Boolean

Update requires: No interruption

KeyspaceName

The name of the keyspace to be created. The keyspace name is case sensitive. If you don't specify a name, AWS CloudFormation generates a unique ID and uses that ID for the keyspace name. For more information, see Name type.

Length constraints: Minimum length of 1. Maximum length of 48.

Required: No

Type: String

Pattern: ^[a-zA-Z0-9][a-zA-Z0-9_]{1,47}$

Update requires: Replacement

ReplicationSpecification

Specifies the ReplicationStrategy of a keyspace. The options are:

• SINGLE_REGION for a single Region keyspace (optional) or
• MULTI_REGION for a multi-Region keyspace

If no ReplicationStrategy is provided, the default is SINGLE_REGION. If you choose MULTI_REGION, you must also provide a RegionList with the AWS Regions that the keyspace is replicated in.

Required: No

Type: ReplicationSpecification

Update requires: No interruption

Tags

An array of key-value pairs to apply to this resource.

For more information, see Tag.

Required: No

Type: Array of Tag

Minimum: 0

Maximum: 50

Update requires: No interruption

Return values

Ref

When you pass the logical ID of this resource to the intrinsic Ref function, Ref returns the name of the keyspace. For example:

{ "Ref": "MyNewKeyspace" }

For more information about using the Ref function, see Ref.

Examples

This section includes code examples that demonstrate how to create a keyspace using the different options.

• Create a new keyspace with tags
• Create a new multi-Region keyspace
• Add a new AWS Region to a single-Region keyspace
• Add a new AWS Region to a multi-Region keyspace

Create a new keyspace with tags

The following example creates a new keyspace namedMyNewKeyspace with the following tags: {'key1':'val1', 'key2':'val2'}.

Create a new multi-Region keyspace

The following example creates a new multi-Region keyspace namedMultiRegionKeyspace that is replicated across three AWS Regions.

Add a new AWS Region to a single-Region keyspace

The following example shows how to add the Region eu-west-1 to a single-Region keyspace namedMyNewKeyspace that is currently available in us-east-1.
