Amazon Keyspaces (for Apache Cassandra) is a scalable, highly available, and managed Apache Cassandra-compatible database service.
Amazon Keyspaces makes it easy to migrate, run, and scale Cassandra workloads in the Amazon Web Services Cloud. With just a few clicks on the Amazon Web Services Management Console or a few lines of code, you can create keyspaces and tables in Amazon Keyspaces, without deploying any infrastructure or installing software.
In addition to supporting Cassandra Query Language (CQL) requests via open-source Cassandra drivers, Amazon Keyspaces supports data definition language (DDL) operations to manage keyspaces and tables using the Amazon Web Services SDK and CLI, as well as infrastructure as code (IaC) services and tools such as CloudFormation and Terraform. This API reference describes the supported DDL operations in detail.
For the list of all supported CQL APIs, see Supported Cassandra APIs, operations, and data types in Amazon Keyspaces: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/keyspaces/latest/devguide/cassandra-apis.html in the Amazon Keyspaces Developer Guide.
To learn how Amazon Keyspaces API actions are recorded with CloudTrail, see Amazon Keyspaces information in CloudTrail: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/keyspaces/latest/devguide/logging-using-cloudtrail.html#service-name-info-in-cloudtrail in the Amazon Keyspaces Developer Guide.

Functions
The CreateKeyspace
operation adds a new keyspace to your account.
The CreateTable
operation adds a new table to the specified keyspace.
DeleteKeyspace
operation deletes a keyspace and all of its tables.The DeleteTable
operation deletes a table and all of its data.
Returns information about the table, including the table's name and current status, the keyspace name, configuration settings, and metadata.
Returns auto scaling related settings of the specified table in JSON format.
Restores the table to the specified point in time within the earliest_restorable_timestamp
and the current time.
Associates a set of tags with a Amazon Keyspaces resource.
Adds new columns to the table or updates one of the table's settings, for example capacity mode, auto scaling, encryption, point-in-time recovery, or ttl settings.
Functions
The CreateKeyspace
operation adds a new keyspace to your account.
In an Amazon Web Services account, keyspace names must be unique within each Region.
CreateKeyspace
is an asynchronous operation. You can monitor the creation status of the new keyspace by using the GetKeyspace
operation.
The CreateTable
operation adds a new table to the specified keyspace.
Within a keyspace, table names must be unique.
CreateTable
is an asynchronous operation. When the request is received, the status of the table is set to CREATING
. You can monitor the creation status of the new table by using the GetTable
operation, which returns the current status
of the table. You can start using a table when the status is ACTIVE
.
DeleteKeyspace
operation deletes a keyspace and all of its tables.
The DeleteTable
operation deletes a table and all of its data.
DeleteTable
request is received, the specified table is in the DELETING
state until Amazon Keyspaces completes the deletion. If the table is in the ACTIVE
state, you can delete it. If a table is either in the CREATING
or UPDATING
states, then Amazon Keyspaces returns a ResourceInUseException
. If the specified table does not exist, Amazon Keyspaces returns a ResourceNotFoundException
. If the table is already in the DELETING
state, no error is returned.
Returns information about the table, including the table's name and current status, the keyspace name, configuration settings, and metadata.
To read table metadata usingGetTable
, Select
action permissions for the table and system tables are required to complete the operation.
Returns auto scaling related settings of the specified table in JSON format.
If the table is a multi-Region table, the Amazon Web Services Region specific auto scaling settings of the table are included.
Amazon Keyspaces auto scaling helps you provision throughput capacity for variable workloads efficiently by increasing and decreasing your table's read and write capacity automatically in response to application traffic. For more information, see Managing throughput capacity automatically with Amazon Keyspaces auto scaling: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/keyspaces/latest/devguide/autoscaling.html in the Amazon Keyspaces Developer Guide.
GetTableAutoScalingSettings
can't be used as an action in an IAM policy.
To define permissions for GetTableAutoScalingSettings
, you must allow the following two actions in the IAM policy statement's Action
element:
application-autoscaling:DescribeScalableTargets
application-autoscaling:DescribeScalingPolicies
Restores the table to the specified point in time within the earliest_restorable_timestamp
and the current time.
For more information about restore points, see Time window for PITR continuous backups: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/keyspaces/latest/devguide/PointInTimeRecovery_HowItWorks.html#howitworks_backup_window in the Amazon Keyspaces Developer Guide.
Any number of users can execute up to 4 concurrent restores (any type of restore) in a given account.
When you restore using point in time recovery, Amazon Keyspaces restores your source table's schema and data to the state based on the selected timestamp (day:hour:minute:second)
to a new table. The Time to Live (TTL) settings are also restored to the state based on the selected timestamp.
In addition to the table's schema, data, and TTL settings, RestoreTable
restores the capacity mode, auto scaling settings, encryption settings, and point-in-time recovery settings from the source table. Unlike the table's schema data and TTL settings, which are restored based on the selected timestamp, these settings are always restored based on the table's settings as of the current time or when the table was deleted.
You can also overwrite these settings during restore:
Read/write capacity mode
Provisioned throughput capacity units
Auto scaling settings
Point-in-time (PITR) settings
Tags
For more information, see PITR restore settings: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/keyspaces/latest/devguide/PointInTimeRecovery_HowItWorks.html#howitworks_backup_settings in the Amazon Keyspaces Developer Guide.
Note that the following settings are not restored, and you must configure them manually for the new table:
Identity and Access Management (IAM) policies
Amazon CloudWatch metrics and alarms
Associates a set of tags with a Amazon Keyspaces resource.
You can then activate these user-defined tags so that they appear on the Cost Management Console for cost allocation tracking. For more information, see Adding tags and labels to Amazon Keyspaces resources: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/keyspaces/latest/devguide/tagging-keyspaces.html in the Amazon Keyspaces Developer Guide.
For IAM policy examples that show how to control access to Amazon Keyspaces resources based on tags, see Amazon Keyspaces resource access based on tags: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/keyspaces/latest/devguide/security_iam_id-based-policy-examples.html#security_iam_id-based-policy-examples-tags in the Amazon Keyspaces Developer Guide.Adds new columns to the table or updates one of the table's settings, for example capacity mode, auto scaling, encryption, point-in-time recovery, or ttl settings.
Note that you can only update one specific table setting per update operation.
