The main configuration details for an RDI pipeline are in the `config.yaml` file.
This file specifies the connection details for the source and target databases,
and also the set of tables you want to capture. You can also add one or more
[job files](https://redis.io/docs/latest/integrate/redis-data-integration/data-pipelines/transform-examples)
if you want to apply custom transformations to the captured data.

Each section explains one part of the file. Start with the minimal example, then
add only the optional properties that you need. See the
[configuration file reference](https://redis.io/docs/latest/integrate/redis-data-integration/reference/config-yaml-reference)
for all supported properties.

## Before you start

Before you create `config.yaml`:

1. [Prepare the source database](https://redis.io/docs/latest/integrate/redis-data-integration/data-pipelines/prepare-dbs) for change data capture.
1. [Install RDI](https://redis.io/docs/latest/integrate/redis-data-integration/installation).
1. [Set the secrets](https://redis.io/docs/latest/integrate/redis-data-integration/data-pipelines/deploy#set-secrets) that the file references.

## Start with a minimal file

The following example shows the required structure of a `config.yaml` file. Values of the
form "`${name}`" refer to secrets that you should set as described in
[Set secrets](https://redis.io/docs/latest/integrate/redis-data-integration/data-pipelines/deploy#set-secrets).
In particular, you should normally use secrets as shown to set the source
and target username and password rather than storing them in plain text in this file.

```yaml
sources:
  mysql:
    type: cdc
    logging:
      level: info
    connection:
      type: mysql
      host: <DB_HOST>
      port: 3306
      user: ${MYSQL_DB_USERNAME}
      password: ${MYSQL_DB_PASSWORD}

targets:
  target:
    connection:
      type: redis
      host: <TARGET_DB_HOST>
      port: 6379
      password: ${TARGET_DB_PASSWORD}

processors:
  target_data_type: hash
```

The processor properties all have defaults, so add them only when you need to change the
default behavior. In particular, the pipeline runs on the Flink processor unless you set
`type` to `classic`.

## Build the file with an AI assistant

Copy the following prompt into your AI assistant. The prompt tells the assistant
to use the RDI documentation as its source of truth and to flag unsupported requests.

```text
Help me create a valid Redis Data Integration (RDI) config.yaml file.

Use only these pages as sources for configuration properties and behavior:
- https://redis.io/docs/latest/integrate/redis-data-integration/data-pipelines/pipeline-config/
- https://redis.io/docs/latest/integrate/redis-data-integration/reference/config-yaml-reference/
- https://redis.io/docs/latest/integrate/redis-data-integration/data-pipelines/prepare-dbs/

Do not invent property names. If a requested property is not documented, tell me.
Use ${NAME} secret references for credentials and certificates. Do not include secret
values in the file. Configure one target Redis database named `target`. Always use the
Flink processor by setting `processors.type` to `flink`.

Ask me for the following information one question at a time:
1. Source database type, host, and port.
2. Databases or schemas to capture.
3. Tables and columns to capture, including keys for tables without a primary key
   or unique constraint.
4. Whether the initial snapshot needs a row filter.
5. Target Redis host and port, and whether the connection uses TLS or mTLS.
6. Redis hash or JSON output.

After I answer, generate config.yaml. Then list the required secrets and link me to
the documented commands to set the secrets and deploy the pipeline.
```

## Sections

The main sections of the file configure [`sources`](#sources), [`targets`](#targets),
and [`processors`](#processors).

### Sources

The `sources` section has one subsection per source database. Each subsection starts
with the source name, which identifies the source and must be unique (in the example,
the source is called `mysql`).

RDI also derives the environment variables that contain the source's credentials from the
source name, for example `${MYSQL_DB_USERNAME}` and `${MYSQL_DB_PASSWORD}` for a source
named `mysql`. See
[Multiple sources in one pipeline](https://redis.io/docs/latest/integrate/redis-data-integration/data-pipelines/multiple-sources)
for the source naming rules and for capturing from more than one source database. For a source
that existed before RDI supported multiple sources, these variables are still named
`SOURCE_DB_*`; see
[Existing names are kept after an upgrade](https://redis.io/docs/latest/integrate/redis-data-integration/data-pipelines/multiple-sources#existing-names-are-kept-after-an-upgrade).

The example configuration contains the following data:

- `type`: The collector to use for the pipeline. Use `cdc` for MariaDB, MySQL,
  MongoDB, Oracle, PostgreSQL, or SQL Server. Use `flink` for Google Cloud
  Spanner. Use `riotx` for Snowflake. Use `external` when you provide and manage
  the collector. RDI doesn't create collector resources for an `external` source,
  so omit the other properties in the source section.
- `connection`: The connection details for the source database: `type`, `host`, `port`,
  and credentials (`user` and `password`).
  See the [configuration file reference](https://redis.io/docs/latest/integrate/redis-data-integration/reference/config-yaml-reference#sourcesconnection)
  for the required fields for each source database type.
  - If you use [TLS](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transport_Layer_Security)/
    or [mTLS](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mutual_authentication#mTLS) to connect
    to the source database, you may need to specify additional properties in the
    `advanced` section with references to the corresponding certificates depending
    on the source database type. Note that these properties **must** be references to
    secrets that you should set as described in [Set secrets](https://redis.io/docs/latest/integrate/redis-data-integration/data-pipelines/deploy#set-secrets).
- `databases`: List of all databases to collect data from for source database types
  that support multiple databases, such as `mysql` and `mariadb`.
- `schemas`: List of all schemas to collect data from for source database types
  that support multiple schemas, such as `oracle`, `postgresql`, and `sqlserver`.
- `tables`: List of all tables to collect data from. Each table is identified by its
  full name, including a database or schema prefix. If there is a single
  database or schema, this prefix can be omitted.
  For each table, you can specify:
  - `columns`: A list of the columns you are interested in (the default is to
    include all columns)
  - `keys`: A list of columns to create a composite key if your table
    doesn't already have a [`PRIMARY KEY`](https://www.w3schools.com/sql/sql_primarykey.asp) or
    [`UNIQUE`](https://www.w3schools.com/sql/sql_unique.asp) constraint.
  - `snapshot_sql`: A query to be used when performing the initial snapshot.
    By default, a query that contains all listed columns of all listed tables will be used.
- `advanced`: These optional properties configure other Debezium-specific features.
  The available sub-sections are:
  - `source`: Properties for reading from the source database.
    See the Debezium [Source connectors](https://debezium.io/documentation/reference/stable/connectors/)
    pages for more information about the properties available for each database type.
  - `sink`: Properties for writing to Redis streams in the RDI database.
    See the Debezium [Redis stream properties](https://debezium.io/documentation/reference/stable/operations/debezium-server.html#_redis_stream)
    page for the full set of available properties.
  - `quarkus`: Properties for the Debezium server, such as the log level. See the
    Quarkus [Configuration options](https://quarkus.io/guides/all-config)
    docs for the full set of available properties.
  - `java_options`: controls the JAVA_OPTS environment variable (for RDI 1.15.1 and above). Use it to modify the default values for Java heap size and other Java options for the Debezium server.
    For example, set it to `"-Xmx2g -Xms512m"` to set the maximum heap size to 2 GB and the initial heap size to 512 MB.

### Choose a snapshot mode {#choose-a-snapshot-mode}

Use `sources.<source-name>.advanced.source.snapshot.mode` to control when a
Debezium collector loads existing source data before streaming changes. This property
applies to sources with `type: cdc`, including MariaDB, MongoDB, MySQL, Oracle,
PostgreSQL, and SQL Server. It does not configure Spanner, Snowflake, or external
collectors.

Add the property under the source you want to configure. For example, this file
uses `initial` mode for a MySQL source:

```yaml
sources:
  mysql:
    type: cdc
    connection:
      type: mysql
      host: <your-source-host>
      port: 3306
      user: ${MYSQL_DB_USERNAME}
      password: ${MYSQL_DB_PASSWORD}
    advanced:
      source:
        snapshot.mode: initial

targets:
  target:
    connection:
      type: redis
      host: <your-target-host>
      port: 6379
      password: ${TARGET_DB_PASSWORD}
```

RDI 1.19.1 and RDI 2.0.0 bundle Debezium 3.5. The comparison and connector
notes in this section apply to those releases. RDI 2.2.0 is planned to use
Debezium 3.7.

The collector saves an *offset*, which is its position in the source's change history.
A missing offset means there is no saved position, as on first deployment or after a
reset. An unavailable position means an offset exists, but the source no longer has
the log history needed to resume from it.

With the default `initial` mode, the collector snapshots when there is no saved
position, then streams changes. A restart with a completed snapshot and a valid saved
position resumes streaming. Deployment or restart alone does not require a new snapshot.
If the saved position is no longer available, `initial` does not automatically
re-snapshot to recover, and the collector stops and reports an error.

With `when_needed` mode, the collector also takes a new snapshot when it detects that the
saved position is no longer available. This can reload all selected data after an
outage without a manual reset. The snapshot captures current rows, rather than
reconstructing every missed change.

If the collector restarts during a snapshot, the snapshot starts again. Rows deleted
while the snapshot is interrupted can remain as stale records in the target because
the new snapshot does not replay their delete events.

Use `when_needed` with monitoring and alerting. Recovery can start a long-running
snapshot, which can increase latency. Missed deletes can leave stale target records
even after the snapshot finishes.

#### Missed deletes can leave stale target records {#missed-deletes}

A new snapshot copies existing source rows. It does not replay missed deletes or remove
target records for rows absent from the snapshot.

The timeline shows one row whose delete event is lost before collection resumes.
Time progresses from top to bottom.

```mermaid
%%{init: {"sequence": {"actorMargin": 15, "diagramMarginX": 5, "width": 90, "mirrorActors": false}}}%%
sequenceDiagram
    participant Source as Source<br/>database
    participant RDI as RDI<br/>collector

    RDI->>Redis: Write<br/>row 42

    Source->>RDI: Current rows<br/>(without row 42)
    RDI->>Redis: Write snapshot<br/>rows
    Note over Redis: Row 42 is stale<br/>Delete missed
```

An interruption alone does not cause this gap. If the saved position and the required
log history are still available, the collector can resume and capture the delete.
In this example, the history expires before the collector resumes, and the new snapshot
contains no row 42 to overwrite or delete its target record. Streaming resumes after
the snapshot, but the stale record can remain in Redis.


#### Compare snapshot modes

The available modes and their exact behavior depend on the source connector and its
version. The following table describes the six values listed in the RDI configuration
reference. A listed value is not necessarily supported by every connector.

| Mode | Existing source data | Restart with a saved position | After a reset clears the position |
| :-- | :-- | :-- | :-- |
| `initial` (default) | Snapshot when no offset exists, then stream changes. | Resume after a completed snapshot if the position is valid. No automatic snapshot recovery for unavailable log history. | Snapshot, then stream changes. |
| `when_needed` | Snapshot when no offset exists, then stream changes. | Resume if the position is valid. Snapshot again if the connector detects an unavailable position. | Snapshot, then stream changes. |
| `always` | Snapshot on every collector start, then stream changes. | Take a new snapshot even if the position is valid. | Snapshot, then stream changes. |
| `initial_only` | Take an initial snapshot without streaming subsequent changes. | Restart an interrupted initial snapshot; do not capture subsequent changes after it completes. | Snapshot without ongoing change capture. |
| `no_data` | Skip existing rows. Initialize any required schema or source position, then stream changes. | Resume streaming if the position is valid. No data snapshot to recover unavailable history. | Skip existing rows and start streaming according to the connector's rules. |
| `never` | Skip the data snapshot where this mode is supported. | Resume according to the connector's rules; no data snapshot recovery. | Connector-specific startup behavior; existing rows are not reloaded. |


On Kubernetes deployments, the collector exits after completing an `initial_only`
snapshot. Kubernetes restarts it, but the collector sees that the snapshot is complete
and exits again. This restart loop can make the source appear disconnected in
monitoring. Check snapshot completion separately from collector connectivity;
`initial_only` mode does not capture subsequent changes.


An interrupted initial snapshot can restart when the collector starts again, including
with `initial` and `initial_only`.

For Debezium 3.5, note these connector differences:

- PostgreSQL `no_data` performs no snapshot. It resumes from a saved log sequence
  number (LSN), or from the replication slot's creation position when no LSN is saved.
  This requires the relevant write-ahead log (WAL) history to remain available.
- Other connectors can capture schema or initialize a position without copying
  existing rows in `no_data` mode.
- `never` is a deprecated alias for `no_data` in PostgreSQL and MongoDB. MySQL and
  MariaDB retain `never` with connector-specific prerequisites. Oracle and SQL Server
  do not offer `never`; use `no_data` to skip existing rows.

See the Debezium 3.5 connector references for [MariaDB](https://debezium.io/documentation/reference/3.5/connectors/mariadb.html),
[MongoDB](https://debezium.io/documentation/reference/3.5/connectors/mongodb.html),
[MySQL](https://debezium.io/documentation/reference/3.5/connectors/mysql.html),
[Oracle](https://debezium.io/documentation/reference/3.5/connectors/oracle.html),
[PostgreSQL](https://debezium.io/documentation/reference/3.5/connectors/postgresql.html),
and [SQL Server](https://debezium.io/documentation/reference/3.5/connectors/sqlserver.html).


A reset clears saved positions without changing `snapshot.mode` or flushing the target
Redis database. If you need to reload existing rows, select a mode that takes a data
snapshot. A snapshot can overwrite target records, but it does not remove stale records
for rows that are absent from the source. See
[Recover from unavailable source log history](https://redis.io/docs/latest/integrate/redis-data-integration/troubleshooting#unavailable-source-history).

### Targets

Use this section to provide the connection details for the target Redis
database. RDI supports one target database. Name the target `target`.
In the `connection` section, you can specify the
`type` of the target database, which must be `redis`, along with
connection details such as `host`, `port`, and credentials (`user` and `password`).
If you use [TLS](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transport_Layer_Security)/
or [mTLS](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mutual_authentication#mTLS) to connect
to the target database, you must specify the CA certificate (for TLS),
and the client certificate and private key (for mTLS) in `cacert`, `cert`, and `key`.
Note that these certificates **must** be references to secrets
that you should set as described in [Set secrets](https://redis.io/docs/latest/integrate/redis-data-integration/data-pipelines/deploy#set-secrets)
(it is not possible to include these certificates as plain text in the file).

### Processors

The `processors` section selects the stream processor and configures its behavior. The default
is the Flink processor, which is what we recommend. To run a pipeline on the classic processor instead,
set `type` to `classic`:

```yaml
processors:
  type: classic
```

See [Differences between the classic and Flink processors](https://redis.io/docs/latest/integrate/redis-data-integration/architecture/classic-vs-flink)
and [Migrate from the classic processor to the Flink processor](https://redis.io/docs/latest/integrate/redis-data-integration/installation/migration-classic-to-flink)
for existing pipelines.

### Tune Classic processor performance

The Classic processor uses the top-level batch, queue, initial-sync, and stream
polling properties. Larger batches can improve throughput but use more memory and
can increase latency while RDI waits for a batch to fill.

```yaml
processors:
  type: classic
  read_batch_size: 2000
  read_batch_timeout_ms: 100
  write_batch_size: 200
  enable_async_processing: true
  batch_queue_size: 3
  ack_queue_size: 10
  initial_sync_processes: 4
  idle_sleep_time_ms: 200
  idle_streams_check_interval_ms: 1000
  busy_streams_check_interval_ms: 5000
```

### Tune Flink processor performance

The Flink processor uses `processors.advanced` for batch behavior, parallelism,
and memory. Don't use Classic queue and initial-sync properties to tune Flink.

```yaml
processors:
  type: flink
  advanced:
    source:
      batch.size: 2000
      batch.timeout.ms: 100
      discovery.interval.ms: 1000
    target:
      batch.size: 200
      flush.interval.ms: 100
    flink:
      taskmanager.numberOfTaskSlots: 1
      taskmanager.memory.process.size: 2048m
    resources:
      taskManager:
        replicas: 2
```

For Kubernetes installations, the number of available task slots is the number
of TaskManager replicas multiplied by `taskmanager.numberOfTaskSlots`. When you
omit `parallelism.default`, Flink uses the available task slots. Adding task slots
can increase initial snapshot throughput. Size `taskmanager.memory.process.size`
for the work done by each TaskManager, especially when jobs use transformations.

The `advanced.source.batch.size`, `advanced.source.batch.timeout.ms`, and
`advanced.target.batch.size` properties override their top-level aliases when
both forms are present. Change other Flink settings only when instructed by Redis
support. See the [configuration file reference](https://redis.io/docs/latest/integrate/redis-data-integration/reference/config-yaml-reference#processorsadvanced)
for all Flink processor properties.

### Choose the Redis data type

Set `target_data_type` to `hash` (the default) or `json`. The `json` option
requires JSON support in the target database. A job file can override this
setting for its output.

```yaml
processors:
  target_data_type: hash
```

See [Job files](https://redis.io/docs/latest/integrate/redis-data-integration/data-pipelines/transform-examples)
for the data types available to job outputs.

### Confirm writes reached a replica

Use these properties only when target database replication is enabled and a
healthy replica is available:

```yaml
processors:
  wait_enabled: true
  wait_timeout: 1000
  retry_on_replica_failure: true
```

For the Flink processor, the corresponding properties under
`processors.advanced.target` take priority over these top-level properties.

See also the
[RDI configuration file reference](https://redis.io/docs/latest/integrate/redis-data-integration/reference/config-yaml-reference#processors)
for full details of the other available properties.

## Extended configuration example
