+---
+
+# Environment variables on Ibexa Cloud
+
+[[= product_name_cloud =]] automatically generates environment variables based on the Platform.sh relationships and routes configuration.
+It parses `PLATFORM_RELATIONSHIPS` and `PLATFORM_ROUTES` environment variables and exposes them as application-specific variables.
+
+Environment variable prefixes are created by converting relationship names to uppercase and replacing hyphens with underscores.
+When multiple endpoints are defined for a single relationship, numerical indices are used, for example: `SOLR_1_`, `SOLR_2`.
+
+## Relationship naming conventions
+
+Use the following relationship names in `.platform.app.yaml`:
+
+- `database` - main application database
+- `dfs_database` - DFS database (required name for DFS functionality)
+- `rediscache` - Redis for cache
+- `redissession` - Redis for sessions (recommended name for dedicated session storage)
+- `elasticsearch` - Elasticsearch search service
+- `solr` - Solr search service
+
+## Database variables
+
+For MySQL and PostgreSQL databases, the following variables are generated based on the relationship name (e.g., `database`):
+
+- `{RELATIONSHIP_NAME}_URL` - full database URL with charset and server version
+- `{RELATIONSHIP_NAME}_USER` / `{RELATIONSHIP_NAME}_USERNAME` - database user
+- `{RELATIONSHIP_NAME}_PASSWORD` - database password
+- `{RELATIONSHIP_NAME}_HOST` - database host
+- `{RELATIONSHIP_NAME}_PORT` - database port
+- `{RELATIONSHIP_NAME}_NAME` / `{RELATIONSHIP_NAME}_DATABASE` - database name
+- `{RELATIONSHIP_NAME}_DRIVER` - database driver
+- `{RELATIONSHIP_NAME}_SERVER` - database server
+
+For example, for a relationship called `database` the environment variables are named `DATABASE_URL`, `DATABASE_HOST`, `DATABASE_USER`, etc.
+
+For more information about database configuration, see [Databases](databases.md).
+
+## DFS database variables
+
+When using [distributed file storage (DFS) using a separate database](clustering.md#dfs-io-handler), you must use the relationship name `dfs_database`.
+In addition to the database variables listed above, additional DFS-specific variables are created when `PLATFORMSH_DFS_NFS_PATH` is set:
+
+- `DFS_NFS_PATH` - NFS path for DFS storage
+- `DFS_DATABASE_CHARSET` - database character set
+- `DFS_DATABASE_COLLATION` - database collation
+
+## Cache variables
+
+For Redis and Memcached cache services, the following variables are available.
+
+- `{RELATIONSHIP_NAME}_URL` (Redis only)
+- `{RELATIONSHIP_NAME}_HOST`
+- `{RELATIONSHIP_NAME}_PORT`
+- `{RELATIONSHIP_NAME}_SCHEME` (Redis only)
+
+In addition, the following global variables are defined:
+
+- `CACHE_POOL` - either `cache.redis` or `cache.memcached`
+- `CACHE_DSN` - cache connection string
+
+!!! note
+    Redis services have higher priority than Memcached services when building the global cache variables.
+
+For more information about persistence cache configuration, see [Persistence cache](persistence_cache.md).
+
+## Session variables
+
+For Redis-based session storage, the following variables are available.
+
+- `SESSION_HANDLER_ID` - session handler class name
+- `SESSION_SAVE_PATH` - Redis connection in `host:port` format
+
+The system looks for a relationship named `redissession` first. If not found, it uses the first available Redis service.
+
+For more information about session configuration, see [Sessions](sessions.md).
+
+## Search engine variables
+
+### Solr
+
+For Solr search engine configuration, the following variables are generated:
+
+- `SEARCH_ENGINE` - set to `solr`
+- `SOLR_DSN` - Solr connection string
+- `SOLR_CORE` - Solr core name
+- `{RELATIONSHIP_NAME}_HOST`
+- `{RELATIONSHIP_NAME}_PORT`
+- `{RELATIONSHIP_NAME}_NAME` / `{RELATIONSHIP_NAME}_DATABASE`
+
+For more information, see [Solr search engine](solr_overview.md).
+
+### Elasticsearch
+
+For Elasticsearch search engine configuration, the following variables are generated:
+
+- `SEARCH_ENGINE` - set to `elasticsearch`
+- `ELASTICSEARCH_DSN` - Elasticsearch connection string
+- `{RELATIONSHIP_NAME}_URL`
+- `{RELATIONSHIP_NAME}_HOST`
+- `{RELATIONSHIP_NAME}_PORT`
+- `{RELATIONSHIP_NAME}_SCHEME`
+
+For more information, see [Elasticsearch](elasticsearch_overview.md).
+
+## HTTP cache variables (Varnish)
+
+For Varnish-based HTTP caching, the following variables are available.
+
+- `HTTPCACHE_PURGE_TYPE` - set to `varnish`
+- `HTTPCACHE_PURGE_SERVER` - Varnish server address
+- `HTTPCACHE_VARNISH_INVALIDATE_TOKEN` - token for cache invalidation
+
+For more information about HTTP cache and Varnish configuration, see [HTTP cache](http_cache.md).
