Hybrid mapping#

As per v1.0.1, hybrid persistence supports all available persistence types. To configure hybrid persistence and its data mapping, follow steps below:

  1. Set CN_PERSISTENCE_TYPE environment variable to hybrid

  2. Set CN_HYBRID_MAPPING with the following format:

    {
    "default": "<couchbase|ldap|spanner|sql>",
    "user": "<couchbase|ldap|spanner|sql>",
    "site": "<couchbase|ldap|spanner|sql>",
    "cache": "<couchbase|ldap|spanner|sql>",
    "token": "<couchbase|ldap|spanner|sql>",
    "session": "<couchbase|ldap|spanner|sql>",
}

    Example:

    {
    "default": "sql",
    "user": "spanner",
    "site": "ldap",
    "cache": "sql",
    "token": "couchbase",
    "session": "spanner",
}
