etcd is a distributed reliable key-value store for the most critical data of a distributed system, with a focus on being:
2013-07-23 21:14:29 +04:00
2016-04-26 22:58:49 +03:00
* *Simple*: well-defined, user-facing API (gRPC)
2016-05-11 20:42:36 +03:00
* *Secure*: automatic TLS with optional client cert authentication
2016-05-28 01:50:04 +03:00
* *Fast*: benchmarked 10,000 writes/sec
2014-04-04 21:58:34 +04:00
* *Reliable*: properly distributed using Raft
2013-07-23 21:14:29 +04:00
2014-04-04 21:58:34 +04:00
etcd is written in Go and uses the [Raft][raft] consensus algorithm to manage a highly-available replicated log.
2013-07-23 21:14:29 +04:00
2018-08-28 05:19:36 +03:00
etcd is used [in production by many companies ](./Documentation/production-users.md ), and the development team stands behind it in critical deployment scenarios, where etcd is frequently teamed with applications such as [Kubernetes][k8s], [locksmith][locksmith], [vulcand][vulcand], [Doorman][doorman], and many others. Reliability is further ensured by [**rigorous testing** ](https://github.com/etcd-io/etcd/tree/master/functional ).

## Getting started

### Getting etcd
2013-07-12 20:49:10 +04:00
2018-04-09 23:32:58 +03:00
The easiest way to get etcd is to use one of the pre-built release binaries which are available for OSX, Linux, Windows, and Docker on the [release page][github-release].
2018-08-28 05:19:36 +03:00
For more installation guides, please check out [play.etcd.io ](http://play.etcd.io ) and [operating etcd ](https://github.com/etcd-io/etcd/tree/master/Documentation#operating-etcd-clusters ).
2013-07-12 20:49:10 +04:00
2019-07-26 08:23:12 +03:00
For those wanting to try the very latest version, [build the latest version of etcd][dl-build] from the `master` branch. This first needs [*Go* ](https://golang.org/ ) installed (version 1.12+ is required). All development occurs on `master` , including new features and bug fixes. Bug fixes are first targeted at `master` and subsequently ported to release branches, as described in the [branch management][branch-management] guide.
2015-03-14 00:10:25 +03:00
2018-08-28 05:19:36 +03:00
[github-release]: https://github.com/etcd-io/etcd/releases
2015-06-05 02:41:32 +03:00
[branch-management]: ./Documentation/branch_management.md
2016-07-05 19:55:44 +03:00
[dl-build]: ./Documentation/dl_build.md#build-the-latest-version
2013-08-11 23:17:45 +04:00
2014-09-09 01:57:16 +04:00
### Running etcd
2013-08-07 05:49:10 +04:00
2017-12-13 04:02:52 +03:00
First start a single-member cluster of etcd.
If etcd is installed using the [pre-built release binaries][github-release], run it from the installation location as below:
2018-08-28 05:19:36 +03:00
```bash
2017-12-13 04:02:52 +03:00
/tmp/etcd-download-test/etcd
```
2018-05-21 11:48:10 +03:00
2017-12-13 04:02:52 +03:00
The etcd command can be simply run as such if it is moved to the system path as below:
2018-08-28 05:19:36 +03:00
```bash
2018-02-06 09:37:37 +03:00
mv /tmp/etcd-download-test/etcd /usr/local/bin/
2017-12-13 04:02:52 +03:00
etcd
```
2018-05-21 11:48:10 +03:00
If etcd is [built from the master branch][dl-build], run it as below:
2013-07-12 09:00:39 +04:00
2018-08-28 05:19:36 +03:00
```bash
2014-01-09 08:47:45 +04:00
./bin/etcd
2013-07-12 09:08:41 +04:00
```
2015-04-06 18:38:13 +03:00
This will bring up etcd listening on port 2379 for client communication and on port 2380 for server-to-server communication.
2013-07-12 09:00:39 +04:00
2014-04-04 21:58:34 +04:00
Next, let's set a single key, and then retrieve it:
2013-07-12 09:00:39 +04:00
2013-12-28 20:37:32 +04:00
```
2019-01-14 15:36:01 +03:00
etcdctl put mykey "this is awesome"
etcdctl get mykey
2013-12-11 22:40:10 +04:00
```
2018-04-09 23:32:58 +03:00
etcd is now running and serving client requests. For more, please check out:

### etcd TCP ports
2017-03-21 01:01:01 +03:00
The [official etcd ports][iana-ports] are 2379 for client requests, and 2380 for peer communication.
2016-03-08 21:28:29 +03:00
2017-05-03 20:01:18 +03:00

2016-03-08 21:28:29 +03:00
2016-04-26 22:58:49 +03:00
### Running a local etcd cluster
2015-01-27 00:54:26 +03:00
First install [goreman ](https://github.com/mattn/goreman ), which manages Procfile-based applications.
2016-04-26 22:58:49 +03:00
Our [Procfile script ](./Procfile ) will set up a local example cluster. Start it with:
2015-01-27 00:54:26 +03:00
2018-08-28 05:19:36 +03:00
```bash
2015-01-27 00:54:26 +03:00
goreman start
```
2017-10-09 19:28:22 +03:00
This will bring up 3 etcd members `infra1` , `infra2` and `infra3` and etcd `grpc-proxy` , which runs locally and composes a cluster.
2015-01-27 00:54:26 +03:00
2016-04-26 22:58:49 +03:00
Every cluster member and proxy accepts key value reads and key value writes.
2013-07-23 23:59:18 +04:00
2016-04-26 22:58:49 +03:00

## Reporting a security vulnerability
2019-05-16 17:32:32 +03:00
A security vulnerability can be reported as an issue, however, GitHub and mailing lists may NOT always be an appropriate place for reporting vulnerabilities. In that case, please reach out to the project [MAINTAINERS ](https://github.com/etcd-io/etcd/blob/master/MAINTAINERS ) to first discuss the vulnerabilities with them and take necessary action per such discussion.
