ArangoDB API access via Mesos cluster on AWS

I have an ArangoDB cluster "framwork" running on a Mesos cluster and running on AWS. I am extremely new to Mesos.

I can access Mesos and I can access ArangoDB through the endpoint that Mesos provides:

http://mymesoscluster/service/arangodb3

I have a Java service that is not running in the Mesos cluster that I would like to use ArangoDB. What I cannot find is how to reference ArangoDB from the API perspective.

For example, the java driver code performs a login that needs a host:

@Bean
public ArangoDB arangoDB() {
    ArangoDB arangoDB = new ArangoDB.Builder()
            .host("????", 8529)
            .user("root").password( "somepassword").build();
    return arangoDB;
}

I see some Mesos docs about API access with a token Authentication HTTP API Endpoint . I do not think that that will get me past the ArangoDB driver login.

Perhaps it is not possible with the java driver?

Solution

  • You need to make the service available from outside.

    If you want to access arangodb from inside, please be aware of authentication, SSL?. Please check back with all served services in the cluster master:5050/v1/axfr
