Encrypted content store informations

oounoughi

Hello,

We want to implement encrypted content store in new environment, and we have some questions that aren't specified in documentation : docs encrypted-content-store 

1. What are the impact on performance when we implement encrypted content store ? The production instance will contain more than +10M documents, in a cluster with two node, does encryption impact CPU/RAM and bulk import operations ?
2. Can we copy encrypted content store and database to an other environment ? Exemple, from PRODUCTION environment to Test environment.

Kind regards,

O.

1. The impact on performance depends on your deployment, but ciphering and deciphering contents is impacting in CPU and RAM consumption. It will have also impact in response times and bulk operations. You may create a small test load for your deployment in order to measure and identify the differences.

2. You can copy db and content store to any other environment, you just need to replicate the "cryptodoc.*" properties and the keystore file.
