boostd-data

This page details the Boost data service - boostd-data

The boostd-data service is a proxy to the underlying backend database that hosts the Local Index Directory (LID). Currently there is support for two stores:
LevelDB
YugabyteDB
Usage
boostd-data run yugabyte --hosts <HOSTS> \
                         --connect-string <CONNECT-STRING> \
                         --addr <LISTEN-ADDR>
We recommend creating a systemd file for this service and utilising it to easily start and stop the boostd-data service. Please note that this service is an independent process and is not controlled by any other Boost process.
​
--hosts takes the IP addresses of the YugabyteDB YT-Servers.
Example:
 --hosts=10.0.0.1 --hosts=10.0.0.2 --hosts=10.0.0.3

--addr is the <IP>:<PORT> where boostd-data service should be listening on. The IP here can be a private one (recommended) and should reachable by all boost related processes. Please ensure to update your firewall configuration accordingly.
