Neptune

Configuration for connecting to Neptune backendยค

Configuration example:

This example configures a connection to a neptune instance in the AWS region eu-central-1. Authentication is enabled so it is assumed that CMEM runs on a EC2 VM with configured role for authentication to neptune. Files (uncompressed) greater than 100MB are uploaded via S3 based bulk loader. The S3 bucket is accessed in this case via an access point which is configured here. The EC2 role CMEM runs under has write access to the bucket. One of the role the neptune cluster runs under is configured in this setting and has read access to the bucket. On bulk load the loading runs parallel in the setting HIGH which causes higher cpu load but better performance.

Also the example disables DPs generation of tracing IDs by micrometer tracing - Neptune needs UUIDs as IDs for queries etc.

store:
  type: neptune
  authorization: REWRITE_FROM
  neptune:

management.tracing.enabled: false

Property: store.type

The type of the store must be set to “neptune”

Category Value
Default neptune
Required true
Valid values NEPTUNE
Environment STORE_TYPE

Configuration of a neptune instance connection.

Property: store.neptune.host

The name of one of the writer endpoints of the neptune instance.

Category Value
Default none
Required true
Valid values string
Environment STORE_NEPTUNE_HOST

Property: store.neptune.port

The port of the neptune instance.

Category Value
Default 8182
Required false
Valid values integer
Environment STORE_NEPTUNE_PORT

Settings for the connection to the Amazon Cloud

Property: store.neptune.aws.region

The region where the neptune instance is located i.e. “eu-central-1” s. https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/using-regions-availability-zones.html#concepts-available-regions

Category Value
Default eu-central-1
Required true
Valid values One of the AWS regions
Environment STORE_NEPTUNE_AWS_REGION

Property: store.neptune.aws.authEnabled

Whether the neptune instance is configured with enabled IAM authentication. In case of enabled authentication the credentials need to be accessible to the JVM of the dataplatform. Deployment on EC2 and assigning a role to the VM is sufficient. Other ways to achieve this are described in https://docs.aws.amazon.com/sdk-for-java/v1/developer-guide/credentials.html

Category Value
Default true
Required true
Valid values boolean
Environment STORE_NEPTUNE_AWS_AUTHENABLED

Settings for S3 bucket connection and upload of large files to the neptune instance. The neptune store blocks all HTTP requests with size >150MB. To upload larger files a graph file is temporarily stored in a S3 bucket and uploaded via Neptune Bulk Loader. The S3 bucket needs to be in the same region as the neptune cluster. For more information s. https://docs.aws.amazon.com/neptune/latest/userguide/bulk-load.html. If no S3 upload is necessary then the limit of 150 MB on HTTPS uploads apply for neptune. The whole section can be left out of the configuration.

Property: store.neptune.s3.bucketNameOrAPAlias

The name of the bucket or access point -> the role CMEM runs under needs write access to the bucket

Category Value
Default none
Required false
Valid values string
Environment STORE_NEPTUNE_S3_BUCKETNAMEORAPALIAS

Property: store.neptune.s3.iamRoleArn

The name of the role the neptune loader accesses the bucket -> the role needs read access to the bucket s. https://docs.aws.amazon.com/neptune/latest/userguide/bulk-load-tutorial-IAM.html

Category Value
Default none
Required false
Valid values string
Environment STORE_NEPTUNE_S3_IAMROLEARN

Property: store.neptune.s3.bulkLoadThresholdInMb

The threshold on uncompressed graph data when bulk upload is applied with a maximum / default of 150 MB

Category Value
Default 150
Required false
Valid values string
Environment STORE_NEPTUNE_S3_BULKLOADTHRESHOLDINMB

Property: store.neptune.s3.bulkLoadParallelism

The degree of parallelism (CPU) for the neptune loader, possible values are LOW, MEDIUM, HIGH, OVERSUBSCRIBE, default of HIGH

Category Value
Default HIGH
Required false
Valid values LOW, MEDIUM, HIGH, OVERSUBSCRIBE
Environment STORE_NEPTUNE_S3_BULKLOADPARALLELISM
