Summary
The Valkey document store integration currently creates a SyncGlideClientConfiguration without setting a client_name. This means connections appear anonymous in monitoring tools like CLIENT LIST and Valkey Admin.
Suggested Fix
In integrations/valkey/src/haystack_integrations/document_stores/valkey/document_store.py (line ~232), add client_name to the configuration:
cfg = SyncGlideClientConfiguration(
[NodeAddress(host, port)],
client_name="haystack_vector_store_client",
)
Why This Matters
When monitoring a Valkey server with multiple connected applications, CLIENT LIST shows each connection's name. Without a client name, operators cannot distinguish Haystack connections from other anonymous clients. This is especially important in production environments with ElastiCache where multiple services share the same Valkey cluster.
Setting client_name sends a CLIENT SETNAME command on connection, making the connection identifiable in:
CLIENT LIST output
- Monitoring dashboards (e.g., Valkey Admin)
- CloudWatch metrics (ElastiCache)
Naming Convention
Suggested client name: haystack_vector_store_client
Pattern: {project}_{purpose}_client
haystack = project name
vector_store = purpose (document store with vector search)
_client = convention (matches Valkey Admin naming pattern)
