Logical Unit Storage Overview
A Logical Unit (LU) is a blueprint holding a set of definitions / instructions used to create and maintain the data of a business entity like a customer.
Fabric uses the Cassandra DB as a Logical Unit's storage layer where each business entity's instance is saved as a MicroDB in an entity table (and in an entity_chunks table for big LUs) under the Cassandra k2view_[LU_name]_[cluster id if exists] keyspace.

Storage Types
The location of a Logical Unit's permanent storage depends on the settings of the LU Schema's Storage property. There are three Storage types:
- Default, inherits storage settings in the [fabricdb] section of the config.ini file.
- None, does not store the instance in Cassandra after a GET retrieves instance data from the source DB.
- Cassandra, stores instances in the Cassandra DB after the execution of the GET command.
To display an LU's storage type, use the Fabric LIST command.
