Configuration¶

The following sections describe various configuration options and performance tips for the driver.

• Load Balancing - How the driver distributes requests across nodes in a cluster to optimize performance and availability.

• Retries - Handling transient errors and ensuring query reliability.

• Speculative Execution - Executing requests speculatively to improve performance and reduce latency.

• Execution Profiles - Grouping most common configuration settings for different execution scenarios.

• Performance Tips - Best practices for efficiency and how to tune the driver for optimal performance.

• Client Identity - Configuring the client identity visible for the server.
