Configuration

A Data Prepper instance requires 2 configuration files to run, and allows an optional 3rd Log4j 2 configuration file (see Logging).

  1. A YAML file which describes the data pipelines to run (including sources, preppers, and sinks)
  2. A YAML file containing Data Prepper server settings, primarily for interacting with the exposed Data Prepper server APIs
  3. An optional Log4j 2 configuration file (can be JSON, YAML, XML, or .properties)

The resulting .jar file expects the pipeline configuration file path followed by the server configuration file path. Example:

java -jar data-prepper-core-$VERSION.jar pipelines.yaml data-prepper-config.yaml

Optionally add "-Dlog4j.configurationFile=config/log4j2.properties" to the command if you would like to pass a custom Log4j 2 configuration file. If no properties file is provided, Data Prepper will default to the log4j2.properties file in the shared-config directory.

Pipeline Configuration

Example Pipeline configuration file (pipelines.yaml):

entry-pipeline:
  workers: 4
  delay: "100"
  source:
    otel_trace_source:
      ssl: false
  sink:
    - pipeline:
        name: "raw-pipeline"
    - pipeline:
        name: "service-map-pipeline"
raw-pipeline:
  workers: 4
  source:
    pipeline:
      name: "entry-pipeline"
  prepper:
    - otel_trace_raw_prepper:
  sink:
    - stdout:
service-map-pipeline:
  workers: 4
  delay: "100"
  source:
    pipeline:
      name: "entry-pipeline"
  prepper:
    - service_map_stateful:
  sink:
    - stdout:

This sample pipeline creates a source to receive trace data and outputs transformed data to stdout.

Server Configuration

Data Prepper allows the following properties to be configured:

  • ssl: boolean indicating TLS should be used for server APIs. Defaults to true
  • keyStoreFilePath: string path to a .jks or .p12 keystore file. Required if ssl is true
  • keyStorePassword string password for keystore. Optional, defaults to empty string
  • privateKeyPassword string password for private key within keystore. Optional, defaults to empty string
  • serverPort: integer port number to use for server APIs. Defaults to 4900
  • metricRegistries: list of metrics registries for publishing the generated metrics. Defaults to Prometheus; Prometheus and CloudWatch are currently supported.

Example Data Prepper configuration file (data-prepper-config.yaml):

ssl: true
keyStoreFilePath: "/usr/share/data-prepper/keystore.jks"
keyStorePassword: "password"
privateKeyPassword: "other_password"
serverPort: 1234
metricRegistries: [Prometheus]
