The machine you are installing Steadybit onto, must have at least 4 CPUs and 8 GB available memory.
JVM_MAX_RAM_PERCENTAGE
Define the MaxRAMPercentage of the platform JVM
Default: 75.0
The platform docker image doesn't contain any shell by default. In case you need to exec into the container using a
shell for debugging purposes, we provide an additional debug variant whith the platform-debug tag.
Steadybit requires a PostgresSQL 15 database.
SPRING_DATASOURCE_URL
yes
JDBC Url for the database connection
Example: jdbc:postgresql://postgres:5432/steadybitdb
SPRING_DATASOURCE_USERNAME
yes
Database Username
Example: postgres
SPRING_DATASOURCE_PASSWORD
yes
Database Password
Example: postgres
STEADYBIT_DB_WEB_ENABLED
Enable Http Endpoint for Database export
Default: true
The workload is bound by the database CPU on peaks.
If you have ~100k targets simultaneously in the platform, we recommend a burstable instance with four vCPU (e.g., db.t4g.xlarge). Regarding disk size, 20 GB should be enough capacity for the start (as extending on AWS should not be a problem).
If you choose a smaller instance for cost savings, the target ingestion will be slower, so it will take a bit longer until the target data in the platform is consistent.
For running the platform with multiple instances, a Redis message broker is required.
SPRING_REDIS_HOST
yes
Redis server host
Example: redis
SPRING_REDIS_PORT
Redis server port
Default: 6379
SPRING_REDIS_USERNAME
Redis Username
SPRING_REDIS_PASSWORD
Redis Password
platform <= 1.0.96 SPRING_REDIS_SSL, platform > 1.0.96 SPRING_REDIS_SSL_ENABLED
Wether to enable ssl support.
Default: false
SPRING_REDIS_CLIENT_NAME
Client name to be set on connections with CLIENT SETNAME.
STEADYBIT_TENANT_AGENTKEY
yes
Agent key for the tenant assigned to you. Treat it as sensitive information.
Example: foobar
STEADYBIT_TENANT_LICENSE
yes
License key for the tenant assigned to you. Treat it as sensitive information.
Example: secret-license
STEADYBIT_WEB_PUBLIC_URL
URL to point to your Steadybit installation. Use this if your platform is running behind a reverse proxy doing path rewriting. Also it is used for the links in notifications.
STEADYBIT_WEB_PUBLIC_EXPERIMENT_PORT
By default the Websocket connections are advertised to the agents on port 7878. If the public port differs (e.g. because of a proxy) use this property to advertise a different port.
STEADYBIT_WEB_PUBLIC_EXPERIMENT_URL
By default the Websocket connections are advertised on the same url name as the agents registers to. If you run a separate loadbalancer for the websockets you can override the advertised url.
LOGGING_FORMAT
By default Steadybit uses text format. Set this this to json to switch the log format to JSON.
You can use a static username/password to authenticate as an admin user
STEADYBIT_AUTH_PROVIDER
yes
Use STATIC for static authentication

You can use a LDAP Server for user authentication.
By default the ldap is accessed anonymously, unless STEADYBIT_AUTH_LDAP_MANAGER_DN
and STEADYBIT_AUTH_LDAP_MANAGER_PASSWORD is set. The users are authenticated by doing a bind with their credentials,
unless STEADYBIT_AUTH_LDAP_METHOD is set to password-compare.
STEADYBIT_AUTH_PROVIDER

Use LDAP for LDAP-Authentication
Example: LDAP
STEADYBIT_AUTH_LDAP_URL
yes

STEADYBIT_AUTH_LDAP_METHOD
The method to authenticate the user. Either bind or password-compare.
Default: bind
STEADYBIT_AUTH_LDAP_PASSWORD_ATTRIBUTE
The attribute in the directory which contains the user password, used if using password-compare
Default: userPassword
STEADYBIT_AUTH_SYNC_ADMIN_GROUP_DN
yes
The DN for the groupOfNames/groupOfUniqueNames for the Admin users
Example: cn=steadybit_admin,ou=groups,dc=steadybit,dc=com
STEADYBIT_AUTH_SYNC_USER_GROUP_DN
yes
The DN for the groupOfNames/groupOfUniqueNames for the User users
Example: cn=steadybit_user,ou=groups,dc=steadybit,dc=com

Default: 0 0 _/2 ? _ * *
You can use an OpenID Connect (OIDC) compatible authentication provider for user authentication.
Grant type

Redirect uri
https://<host>/oauth2/login/code/default
Login url
https://<host>/login
Response type
code
The first user to login will be assigned the
ADMINrole, all other will be assigned theUSERrole. The roles can be changed by an admin user via the UI.
Be aware to configure your ingress / loadbalancer to set the X-Forwarded-Proto and x-forwarded-for header. Otherwise the correct redirect URL will not be
generated.
STEADYBIT_AUTH_PROVIDER
yes
Use OAUTH2 for OIDC-Authentication
Example: OAUTH2

Default: groups
Example value in OIDC provider for single team: team1
Example value in OIDC provider for multiple teams: ["team1","team2"]
STEADYBIT_AUTH_OAUTH2_HOSTED_DOMAIN
Restrict the login to users with a specific email domain. If set, only users with an email address from this domain will be allowed to login. Can be used with Google Workspace OIDC.
Example: example.com

Rate limits protect the UI, API, and Agent endpoints of the Steadybit platform. They can be enabled or disabled by setting the environment variablesteadybit.ratelimit.enabled to true or false, respectively.
Rate limits restrict the number of processable requests in a given timeframe. Every request reduces this capacity and will fail if none is left. After a given time, the capacity is refilled, and requests can be processed again.
All rate limits apply to the associated tenant, whereas some endpoints are additionally restricted by a qualifier, specifying the user or agent issuing the request.

To define stricter or more relaxed restrictions environment variables can override the predefined defaults.
name has to be replaced by the rate limit name in environment variable format (all uppercase, separated by underscore). capacity states the initial
capacity, refill-tokens the amount that should be refilled every refill-period in unit refill-unit. Furthermore, tenant and qualifier (user or agent)
restrictions can be overridden separately.
For example, changing the general UI rate limit would look like this:
The Steadybit Platform provides the following rate limit metrics:
ratelimit_tokens_available
tenantKey, bucketName (as described above), qualifier (username or agent id)
Number of available token
ratelimit_tokens_total
tenantKey, bucketName (as described above), qualifier (username or agent id), status (consumed, rejected or failed)
Number of requested token
The platform can connect to multiple hubs.
