How to use Multi-Region Replication

You can create and manage multi-Region keyspaces and tables using the Amazon Keyspaces (for Apache Cassandra) console, Cassandra Query Language (CQL), the Amazon SDK, and the Amazon Command Line Interface (Amazon CLI).

This section provides examples of how to create multi-Region keyspaces and tables with the console, with CQL, and with the Amazon CLI, using both on-demand and provisioned capacity mode. All of the tables created in a multi-Region keyspace automatically inherit the multi-Region settings from the keyspace.

This section also includes examples of how to use the console, CQL, and the Amazon CLI to manage the Amazon Keyspaces auto scaling settings of provisioned multi-Region tables. For more information about general auto scaling configuration options and how they work, see Manage throughput capacity automatically with Amazon Keyspaces auto scaling.

Note that if you're using provisioned capacity mode for multi-Region tables, you must always use Amazon Keyspaces API calls to configure auto scaling. This is because the underlying Application Auto Scaling API operations are not Region-aware.

For more information on how to estimate write capacity throughput of provisioned multi-Region tables, see Working with multi-Region tables in Amazon Keyspaces.
