Important Information on Multi-tiered Storage Configuration

Multi-tiered storage is a useful tool that allows you to store data across different levels of storage media based on access speed and cost. This helps optimize performance and reduce overall storage costs by placing frequently accessed data on faster storage media, such as SSDs, and less frequently accessed data on slower but more cost-effective storage media, such as HDDs.

Please note that once you have added a storage tier, it cannot be removed. Therefore, it is important to carefully consider your storage requirements and configure the tiers appropriately. A misconfigured storage tier can result in performance degradation and decreased efficiency, so be sure to select the appropriate retention strategy for each tier to ensure optimal performance and data accessibility.

For example, you can move events to a slower storage tier once they have been snapshotted and the snapshot is available on the faster tier.

Ephemeral context

Selecting black hole as tier will mark your context as ephemeral which means data is permanently removed after a specified retention interval. Once data is removed, it cannot be recovered.

Use this feature with caution and only if you are certain that you no longer need the data.

A misconfigured storage tier can result in performance degradation and decreased efficiency, so be sure to select the appropriate retention strategy for each tier to ensure optimal performance and data accessibility.

Custom storage tier

The Custom storage tier enables you to set a custom location for a specific tier in Axon Server.
You can choose storage via a dropdown menu.

To add storage locations to the dropdown menu, you need to configure Axon Server with additional properties. This can be done either through a property file or environment variables, using the following syntax:

axoniq.axonserver.event.storages.{storage name}={path to storage} axoniq.axonserver.snapshot.storages.{storage name}={path to storage}

For example, to set the slow_disk storage location to /hhd2/eventstore, you can add the following line to your configuration:

axoniq.axonserver.event.storages.slow_disk=/hhd2/eventstore axoniq.axonserver.snapshot.storages.slow_disk=/hhd2/eventstore

Its' important to configure the given storage on all nodes in the Axon Server cluster.
