etcd API

Running a Single Machine Cluster

These examples will use a single machine cluster to show you the basics of the etcd REST API. Let's start etcd:

./bin/etcd -data-dir machine0 -name machine0

This will bring up etcd listening on default ports (4001 for client communication and 7001 for server-to-server communication). The -data-dir machine0 argument tells etcd to write machine configuration, logs and snapshots to the ./machine0/ directory. The -name machine0 tells the rest of the cluster that this machine is named machine0.

Key Space Operations

The primary API of etcd is a hierarchical key space. The key space consists of directories and keys which are generically referred to as "nodes".

Setting the value of a key

Let's set the first key-value pair in the datastore. In this case the key is /message and the value is Hello world.

curl -L http://127.0.0.1:4001/v2/keys/message -XPUT -d value="Hello world"

{
    "action": "set",
    "node": {
        "createdIndex": 2,
        "key": "/message",
        "modifiedIndex": 2,
        "value": "Hello world"
    }
}

The response object contains several attributes:

action: the action of the request that was just made. The request attempted to modify node.value via a PUT HTTP request, thus the value of action is set.
node.key: the HTTP path to which the request was made. We set /message to Hello world, so the key field is /message. etcd uses a file-system-like structure to represent the key-value pairs, therefore all keys start with /.
node.value: the value of the key after resolving the request. In this case, a successful request was made that attempted to change the node's value to Hello world.
node.createdIndex: an index is a unique, monotonically-incrementing integer created for each change to etcd. This specific index reflects the point in the etcd state machine at which a given key was created. You may notice that in this example the index is 2 even though it is the first request you sent to the server. This is because there are internal commands that also change the state behind the scenes, like adding and syncing servers.
node.modifiedIndex: like node.createdIndex, this attribute is also an etcd index. Actions that cause the value to change include set, delete, update, create, compareAndSwap and compareAndDelete. Since the get and watch commands do not change state in the store, they do not change the value of node.modifiedIndex.

Response Headers

etcd includes a few HTTP headers in responses that provide global information about the etcd cluster that serviced a request:

X-Etcd-Index: 35
X-Raft-Index: 5398
X-Raft-Term: 0

X-Etcd-Index is the current etcd index as explained above.
X-Raft-Index is similar to the etcd index but is for the underlying raft protocol
X-Raft-Term is an integer that will increase whenever an etcd master election happens in the cluster. If this number is increasing rapidly, you may need to tune the election timeout. See the tuning section for details.

Get the value of a key

We can get the value that we just set in /message by issuing a GET request:

curl -L http://127.0.0.1:4001/v2/keys/message

{
    "action": "get",
    "node": {
        "createdIndex": 2,
        "key": "/message",
        "modifiedIndex": 2,
        "value": "Hello world"
    }
}

Changing the value of a key

You can change the value of /message from Hello world to Hello etcd with another PUT request to the key:

curl -L http://127.0.0.1:4001/v2/keys/message -XPUT -d value="Hello etcd"

{
    "action": "set",
    "node": {
        "createdIndex": 3,
        "key": "/message",
        "modifiedIndex": 3,
        "value": "Hello etcd"
    },
    "prevNode": {
    	"createdIndex": 2
    	"key": "/message",
    	"value": "Hello world",
    	"modifiedIndex": 2,
    }
}

Here we introduce a new field: prevNode. The prevNode field represents what the state of a given node was before resolving the request at hand. The prevNode field follows the same format as the node, and is omitted in the event that there was no previous state for a given node.

Deleting a key

You can remove the /message key with a DELETE request:

curl -L http://127.0.0.1:4001/v2/keys/message -XDELETE

{
    "action": "delete",
    "node": {
        "createdIndex": 3,
        "key": "/message",
        "modifiedIndex": 4
    },
    "prevNode": {
    	"key": "/message",
    	"value": "Hello etcd",
    	"modifiedIndex": 3,
    	"createdIndex": 3
    }
}

Using key TTL

Keys in etcd can be set to expire after a specified number of seconds. You can do this by setting a TTL (time to live) on the key when sending a PUT request:

curl -L http://127.0.0.1:4001/v2/keys/foo -XPUT -d value=bar -d ttl=5

{
    "action": "set",
    "node": {
        "createdIndex": 5,
        "expiration": "2013-12-04T12:01:21.874888581-08:00",
        "key": "/foo",
        "modifiedIndex": 5,
        "ttl": 5,
        "value": "bar"
    }
}

Note the two new fields in response:

The expiration is the time at which this key will expire and be deleted.
The ttl is the specified time to live for the key, in seconds.

NOTE: Keys can only be expired by a cluster leader, so if a machine gets disconnected from the cluster, its keys will not expire until it rejoins.

Now you can try to get the key by sending a GET request:

curl -L http://127.0.0.1:4001/v2/keys/foo

If the TTL has expired, the key will have been deleted, and you will be returned a 100.

{
    "cause": "/foo",
    "errorCode": 100,
    "index": 6,
    "message": "Key Not Found"
}

The TTL could be unset to avoid expiration through update operation:

curl -L http://127.0.0.1:4001/v2/keys/foo -XPUT -d value=bar -d ttl= -d prevExist=true

{
    "action": "update",
    "node": {
        "createdIndex": 5,
        "key": "/foo",
        "modifiedIndex": 6,
        "value": "bar"
    }
    "prevNode": {
        "createdIndex": 5,
        "expiration": "2013-12-04T12:01:21.874888581-08:00",
        "key": "/foo",
        "modifiedIndex": 5,
        "ttl": 3,
        "value": "bar"
    }
}

Waiting for a change

We can watch for a change on a key and receive a notification by using long polling. This also works for child keys by passing recursive=true in curl.

In one terminal, we send a GET with wait=true :

curl -L http://127.0.0.1:4001/v2/keys/foo?wait=true

Now we are waiting for any changes at path /foo.

In another terminal, we set a key /foo with value bar:

curl -L http://127.0.0.1:4001/v2/keys/foo -XPUT -d value=bar

The first terminal should get the notification and return with the same response as the set request:

{
    "action": "set",
    "node": {
        "createdIndex": 7,
        "key": "/foo",
        "modifiedIndex": 7,
        "value": "bar"
    },
    "prevNode": {
        "createdIndex": 6,
        "key": "/foo",
        "modifiedIndex": 6,
        "value": "bar"
    }
}

However, the watch command can do more than this. Using the index, we can watch for commands that have happened in the past. This is useful for ensuring you don't miss events between watch commands.

Let's try to watch for the set command of index 7 again:

curl -L 'http://127.0.0.1:4001/v2/keys/foo?wait=true&waitIndex=7'

The watch command returns immediately with the same response as previously.

Atomically Creating In-Order Keys

Using POST on a directory, you can create keys with key names that are created in-order. This can be used in a variety of useful patterns, like implementing queues of keys which need to be processed in strict order. An example use case is the locking module which uses it to ensure clients get fair access to a mutex.

Creating an in-order key is easy:

curl http://127.0.0.1:4001/v2/keys/queue -XPOST -d value=Job1

{
    "action": "create",
    "node": {
        "createdIndex": 6,
        "key": "/queue/6",
        "modifiedIndex": 6,
        "value": "Job1"
    }
}

If you create another entry some time later, it is guaranteed to have a key name that is greater than the previous key. Also note the key names use the global etcd index, so the next key can be more than previous + 1.

curl http://127.0.0.1:4001/v2/keys/queue -XPOST -d value=Job2

{
    "action": "create",
    "node": {
        "createdIndex": 29,
        "key": "/queue/29",
        "modifiedIndex": 29,
        "value": "Job2"
    }
}

To enumerate the in-order keys as a sorted list, use the "sorted" parameter.

curl -s 'http://127.0.0.1:4001/v2/keys/queue?recursive=true&sorted=true'

{
    "action": "get",
    "node": {
        "createdIndex": 2,
        "dir": true,
        "key": "/queue",
        "modifiedIndex": 2,
        "nodes": [
            {
                "createdIndex": 2,
                "key": "/queue/2",
                "modifiedIndex": 2,
                "value": "Job1"
            },
            {
                "createdIndex": 3,
                "key": "/queue/3",
                "modifiedIndex": 3,
                "value": "Job2"
            }
        ]
    }
}

Using a directory TTL

Like keys, directories in etcd can be set to expire after a specified number of seconds. You can do this by setting a TTL (time to live) on a directory when it is created with a PUT:

curl -L http://127.0.0.1:4001/v2/keys/dir -XPUT -d ttl=30 -d dir=true

{
    "action": "set",
    "node": {
        "createdIndex": 17,
        "dir": true,
        "expiration": "2013-12-11T10:37:33.689275857-08:00",
        "key": "/newdir",
        "modifiedIndex": 17,
        "ttl": 30
    }
}

The directory's TTL can be refreshed by making an update. You can do this by making a PUT with prevExist=true and a new TTL.

curl -L http://127.0.0.1:4001/v2/keys/dir -XPUT -d ttl=30 -d dir=true -d prevExist=true

Keys that are under this directory work as usual, but when the directory expires, a watcher on a key under the directory will get an expire event:

curl 'http://127.0.0.1:4001/v2/keys/dir/asdf?consistent=true&wait=true'

{
	"action": "expire",
	"node": {
		"createdIndex": 8,
		"key": "/dir",
		"modifiedIndex": 15
	},
	"prevNode": {
		"createdIndex": 8,
		"key": "/dir",
		"dir":true,
		"modifiedIndex": 17,
		"expiration": "2013-12-11T10:39:35.689275857-08:00"
	},
}

Atomic Compare-and-Swap

etcd can be used as a centralized coordination service in a cluster, and CompareAndSwap (CAS) is the most basic operation used to build a distributed lock service.

This command will set the value of a key only if the client-provided conditions are equal to the current conditions.

The current comparable conditions are:

prevValue - checks the previous value of the key.
prevIndex - checks the previous modifiedIndex of the key.
prevExist - checks existence of the key: if prevExist is true, it is an update request; if prevExist is false, it is a create request.

Here is a simple example. Let's create a key-value pair first: foo=one.

curl -L http://127.0.0.1:4001/v2/keys/foo -XPUT -d value=one

Now let's try some invalid CompareAndSwap commands.

Trying to set this existing key with prevExist=false fails as expected:

curl -L http://127.0.0.1:4001/v2/keys/foo?prevExist=false -XPUT -d value=three

The error code explains the problem:

{
    "cause": "/foo",
    "errorCode": 105,
    "index": 39776,
    "message": "Already exists"
}

Now let's provide a prevValue parameter:

curl -L http://127.0.0.1:4001/v2/keys/foo?prevValue=two -XPUT -d value=three

This will try to compare the previous value of the key and the previous value we provided. If they are equal, the value of the key will change to three.

{
    "cause": "[two != one]",
    "errorCode": 101,
    "index": 8,
    "message": "Test Failed"
}

which means CompareAndSwap failed. cause explains why the test failed. Note: the condition prevIndex=0 always passes.

Let's try a valid condition:

curl -L http://127.0.0.1:4001/v2/keys/foo?prevValue=one -XPUT -d value=two

The response should be:

{
    "action": "compareAndSwap",
    "node": {
        "createdIndex": 8,
        "key": "/foo",
        "modifiedIndex": 9,
        "value": "two"
    },
    "prevNode": {
    	"createdIndex": 8,
    	"key": "/foo",
    	"modifiedIndex": 8,
    	"value": "one"
    }
}

We successfully changed the value from "one" to "two" since we gave the correct previous value.

Atomic Compare-and-Delete

This command will delete a key only if the client-provided conditions are equal to the current conditions.

The current comparable conditions are:

prevValue - checks the previous value of the key.
prevIndex - checks the previous modifiedIndex of the key.

Here is a simple example. Let's first create a key: foo=one.

curl -L http://127.0.0.1:4001/v2/keys/foo -XPUT -d value=one

Now let's try some CompareAndDelete commands.

Trying to delete the key with prevValue=two fails as expected:

curl -L http://127.0.0.1:4001/v2/keys/foo?prevValue=two -XDELETE

The error code explains the problem:

{
	"errorCode": 101,
	"message": "Compare failed",
	"cause": "[two != one]",
	"index": 8
}

As does a CompareAndDelete with a mismatched prevIndex:

curl -L http://127.0.0.1:4001/v2/keys/foo?prevIndex=1 -XDELETE

{
	"errorCode": 101,
	"message": "Compare failed",
	"cause": "[1 != 8]",
	"index": 8
}

And now a valid prevValue condition:

curl -L http://127.0.0.1:4001/v2/keys/foo?prevValue=one -XDELETE

The successful response will look something like:

{
	"action": "compareAndDelete",
	"node": {
		"key": "/foo",
		"modifiedIndex": 9,
		"createdIndex": 8
	},
	"prevNode": {
		"key": "/foo",
		"value": "one",
		"modifiedIndex": 8,
		"createdIndex": 8
	}
}

Creating Directories

In most cases, directories for a key are automatically created. But there are cases where you will want to create a directory or remove one.

Creating a directory is just like a key except you cannot provide a value and must add the dir=true parameter.

curl -L http://127.0.0.1:4001/v2/keys/dir -XPUT -d dir=true

{
    "action": "set",
    "node": {
        "createdIndex": 30,
        "dir": true,
        "key": "/dir",
        "modifiedIndex": 30
    }
}

Listing a directory

In etcd we can store two types of things: keys and directories. Keys store a single string value. Directories store a set of keys and/or other directories.

In this example, let's first create some keys:

We already have /foo=two so now we'll create another one called /foo_dir/foo with the value of bar:

curl -L http://127.0.0.1:4001/v2/keys/foo_dir/foo -XPUT -d value=bar

{
    "action": "set",
    "node": {
        "createdIndex": 2,
        "key": "/foo_dir/foo",
        "modifiedIndex": 2,
        "value": "bar"
    }
}

Now we can list the keys under root /:

curl -L http://127.0.0.1:4001/v2/keys/

We should see the response as an array of items:

{
    "action": "get",
    "node": {
        "dir": true,
        "key": "/",
        "nodes": [
            {
                "createdIndex": 2,
                "dir": true,
                "key": "/foo_dir",
                "modifiedIndex": 2
            }
        ]
    }
}

Here we can see /foo is a key-value pair under / and /foo_dir is a directory. We can also recursively get all the contents under a directory by adding recursive=true.

curl -L http://127.0.0.1:4001/v2/keys/?recursive=true

{
    "action": "get",
    "node": {
        "dir": true,
        "key": "/",
        "nodes": [
            {
                "createdIndex": 2,
                "dir": true,
                "key": "/foo_dir",
                "modifiedIndex": 2,
                "nodes": [
                    {
                        "createdIndex": 2,
                        "key": "/foo_dir/foo",
                        "modifiedIndex": 2,
                        "value": "bar"
                    }
                ]
            }
        ]
    }
}

Deleting a Directory

Now let's try to delete the directory /foo_dir.

You can remove an empty directory using the DELETE verb and the dir=true parameter.

curl -L 'http://127.0.0.1:4001/v2/keys/foo_dir?dir=true' -XDELETE

{
    "action": "delete",
    "node": {
        "createdIndex": 30,
        "dir": true,
        "key": "/foo_dir",
        "modifiedIndex": 31
    },
    "prevNode": {
    	"createdIndex": 30,
    	"key": "/foo_dir",
    	"dir": true,
    	"modifiedIndex": 30
    }
}

To delete a directory that holds keys, you must add recursive=true.

curl -L http://127.0.0.1:4001/v2/keys/dir?recursive=true -XDELETE

{
    "action": "delete",
    "node": {
        "createdIndex": 10,
        "dir": true,
        "key": "/dir",
        "modifiedIndex": 11
    },
    "prevNode": {
    	"createdIndex": 10,
    	"dir": true,
    	"key": "/dir",
    	"modifiedIndex": 10
    }
}

Creating a hidden node

We can create a hidden key-value pair or directory by add a _ prefix. The hidden item will not be listed when sending a GET request for a directory.

First we'll add a hidden key named /_message:

curl -L http://127.0.0.1:4001/v2/keys/_message -XPUT -d value="Hello hidden world"

{
    "action": "set",
    "node": {
        "createdIndex": 3,
        "key": "/_message",
        "modifiedIndex": 3,
        "value": "Hello hidden world"
    }
}

Next we'll add a regular key named /message:

curl -L http://127.0.0.1:4001/v2/keys/message -XPUT -d value="Hello world"

{
    "action": "set",
    "node": {
        "createdIndex": 4,
        "key": "/message",
        "modifiedIndex": 4,
        "value": "Hello world"
    }
}

Now let's try to get a listing of keys under the root directory, /:

curl -L http://127.0.0.1:4001/v2/keys/

{
    "action": "get",
    "node": {
        "dir": true,
        "key": "/",
        "nodes": [
            {
                "createdIndex": 2,
                "dir": true,
                "key": "/foo_dir",
                "modifiedIndex": 2
            },
            {
                "createdIndex": 4,
                "key": "/message",
                "modifiedIndex": 4,
                "value": "Hello world"
            }
        ]
    }
}

Here we see the /message key but our hidden /_message key is not returned.

Setting a key from a file

You can also use etcd to store small configuration files, json documents, XML documents, etc directly. For example you can use curl to upload a simple text file and encode it:

echo "Hello\nWorld" > afile.txt
curl -L http://127.0.0.1:4001/v2/keys/afile -XPUT --data-urlencode value@afile.txt

{
    "action": "get",
    "node": {
        "createdIndex": 2,
        "key": "/afile",
        "modifiedIndex": 2,
        "value": "Hello\nWorld\n"
    }
}

Read Consistency

Followers in a cluster can be behind the leader in their copy of the keyspace. If your application wants or needs the most up-to-date version of a key then it should ensure it reads from the current leader. By using the consistent=true flag in your GET requests, etcd will make sure you are talking to the current master.

As an example of how a machine can be behind the leader let's start with a three machine cluster: L, F1, and F2. A client makes a write to L and F1 acknowledges the request. The client is told the write was successful and the keyspace is updated. Meanwhile F2 has partitioned from the network and will have an out-of-date version of the keyspace until the partition resolves. Since F2 missed the most recent write, a client reading from F2 will have an out-of-date version of the keyspace.

Lock Module

The lock module is used to serialize access to resources used by clients. Multiple clients can attempt to acquire a lock but only one can have it at a time. Once the lock is released, the next client waiting for the lock will receive it.

Acquiring a Lock

To acquire a lock, simply send a POST request to the lock module with the lock name and TTL:

curl -L http://127.0.0.1:4001/mod/v2/lock/mylock -XPOST -d ttl=20

You will receive the lock index when you acquire the lock:

If the TTL is not specified or is not a number then you'll receive the following error:

{
    "errorCode": 202,
    "message": "The given TTL in POST form is not a number",
    "cause": "Acquire",
}

If you specify a timeout that is not a number then you'll receive the following error:

{
    "errorCode": 205,
    "message": "The given timeout in POST form is not a number",
    "cause": "Acquire",
}

Renewing a Lock

To extend the TTL of an already acquired lock, simply repeat your original request but with a PUT and the lock index instead:

curl -L http://127.0.0.1:4001/mod/v2/lock/mylock -XPUT -d index=5 -d ttl=20

If the index or value is not specified then you'll receive the following error:

{
    "errorCode": 207,
    "message": "Index or value is required",
    "cause": "Renew",
}

If the index or value does not exist then you'll receive the following error with a 404 Not Found HTTP code:

{
    "errorCode": 100,
    "message": "Key not found",
    "index": 1
}

If the TTL is not specified or is not a number then you'll receive the following error:

{
    "errorCode": 202,
    "message": "The given TTL in POST form is not a number",
    "cause": "Renew",
}

Releasing a Lock

When the client is finished with the lock, simply send a DELETE request to release the lock:

curl -L http://127.0.0.1:4001/mod/v2/lock/mylock?index=5 -XDELETE

If the index or value is not specified then you'll receive the following error:

{
    "errorCode": 207,
    "message": "Index or value is required",
    "cause": "Release",
}

If the index and value are both specified then you'll receive the following error:

{
    "errorCode": 208,
    "message": "Index and value cannot both be specified",
    "cause": "Release",
}

If the index or value does not exist then you'll receive the following error with a 404 Not Found HTTP code:

{
    "errorCode": 100,
    "message": "Key not found",
    "index": 1
}

Retrieving a Lock

To determine the current value or index of a lock, send a GET request to the lock. You can specify a field of index or value. The default is value.

curl -L http://127.0.0.1:4001/mod/v2/lock/mylock?field=index

Will return the current index:

If you specify a field other than index or value then you'll receive the following error:

{
    "errorCode": 209,
    "message": "Invalid field",
    "cause": "Get",
}

Leader Module

The leader module wraps the lock module to provide a simple interface for electing a single leader in a cluster.

Setting the Leader

A client can attempt to become leader by sending a PUT request to the leader module with the name of the leader to elect:

curl -L http://127.0.0.1:4001/mod/v2/leader/myclustername -XPUT -d ttl=300 -d name=foo.mydomain.com

You will receive a successful 200 HTTP response code when the leader is elected.

If the name is not specified then you'll receive the following error:

{
    "errorCode": 206,
    "message": "Name is required in POST form",
    "cause": "Set",
}

You can also receive any errors specified by the Lock module.

Retrieving the Current Leader

A client can check to determine if there is a current leader by sending a GET request to the leader module:

curl -L http://127.0.0.1:4001/mod/v2/leader/myclustername

You will receive the name of the current leader:

foo.mydomain.com

Relinquishing Leadership

A client can give up leadership by sending a DELETE request with the leader name:

curl -L http://127.0.0.1:4001/mod/v2/leader/myclustername?name=foo.mydomain.com -XDELETE

If the name is not specified then you'll receive the following error:

{
    "errorCode": 206,
    "message": "Name is required in POST form",
    "cause": "Set",
}

Statistics

An etcd cluster keeps track of a number of statistics including latency, bandwidth and uptime. These statistics are used in the /mod/dashboard endpoint to generate tables and graphs about the cluster state.

Leader Statistics

The leader has a view of the entire cluster and keeps track of two interesting statistics: latency to each peer in the cluster, and the number of failed and successful Raft RPC requests. You can grab these statistics from the /v2/stats/leader endpoint:

curl -L http://127.0.0.1:4001/v2/stats/leader

{
    "followers": {
        "etcd-node1": {
            "counts": {
                "fail": 1212,
                "success": 4163176
            },
            "latency": {
                "average": 2.7206299430775007,
                "current": 1.486487,
                "maximum": 2018.410279,
                "minimum": 1.011763,
                "standardDeviation": 6.246990702203536
            }
        },
        "etcd-node3": {
            "counts": {
                "fail": 1378,
                "success": 4164598
            },
            "latency": {
                "average": 2.707100125761001,
                "current": 1.666258,
                "maximum": 1409.054765,
                "minimum": 0.998415,
                "standardDeviation": 5.910089773061448
            }
        }
    },
    "leader": "etcd-node2"
}

Self Statistics

Each node keeps a number of internal statistics:

leaderInfo.leader: name of the current leader machine
leaderInfo.uptime: amount of time the leader has been leader
name: this machine's name
recvAppendRequestCnt: number of append requests this node has processed
recvBandwidthRate: number of bytes per second this node is receiving (follower only)
recvPkgRate: number of requests per second this node is receiving (follower only)
sendAppendRequestCnt: number of requests that this node has sent
sendBandwidthRate: number of bytes per second this node is receiving (leader only). This value is undefined on single machine clusters.
sendPkgRate: number of requests per second this node is receiving (leader only). This value is undefined on single machine clusters.
state: either leader or follower
startTime: the time when this node was started

This is an example response from a follower machine:

curl -L http://127.0.0.1:4001/v2/stats/self

{
    "leaderInfo": {
        "leader": "machine1",
        "uptime": "1m18.544996775s"
    },
    "name": "machine0",
    "recvAppendRequestCnt": 5871307,
    "recvBandwidthRate": 630.3121596542599,
    "recvPkgRate": 19.272654323628185,
    "sendAppendRequestCnt": 3175763,
    "startTime": "2014-01-01T15:26:24.96569404Z",
    "state": "follower"
}

And this is an example response from a leader machine:

curl -L http://127.0.0.1:4001/v2/stats/self

{
    "leaderInfo": {
        "leader": "machine0",
        "uptime": "24.648619798s"
    },
    "name": "machine0",
    "recvAppendRequestCnt": 5901116,
    "sendAppendRequestCnt": 3212344,
    "sendBandwidthRate": 1254.3151237301615,
    "sendPkgRate": 38.71342974475808,
    "startTime": "2014-01-01T15:26:24.96569404Z",
    "state": "leader"
}

Store Statistics

The store statistics include information about the operations that this node has handled.

Operations that modify the store's state like create, delete, set and update are seen by the entire cluster and the number will increase on all nodes. Operations like get and watch are node local and will only be seen on this node.

curl -L http://127.0.0.1:4001/v2/stats/store

{
    "compareAndSwapFail": 0,
    "compareAndSwapSuccess": 0,
    "createFail": 0,
    "createSuccess": 2,
    "deleteFail": 0,
    "deleteSuccess": 0,
    "expireCount": 0,
    "getsFail": 4,
    "getsSuccess": 75,
    "setsFail": 2,
    "setsSuccess": 4,
    "updateFail": 0,
    "updateSuccess": 0,
    "watchers": 0
}
