Virgil has two different run modes. It can run an embedded instance of Cassandra that is configured using the local cassandra.yaml (just like a stand-alone Cassandra) or it can run against a remote instance.
The embedded Cassandra instance can be used when performance is a concern. Since it is running an embedded instance, it does not need to make an extra hop to the Cassandra server. Instead operations are performed in the same call stack within the local JVM.
However, if you'd prefer to run against a remote instance. You can do that too.
To run in embedded mode:
bin/virgil -embedded
To run Virgil against a remote instance:
bin/virgil -host cassandra_host
