Great solution
What do you like best about the product?
The solution offers all the benefits of a database, architecture and easy implementation in development. And above all, it has a very active and collaborative community.
What do you dislike about the product?
So far I haven't found anything that doesn't meet my need.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Working on projects to separate functions of a cloud ERP application that demand quick query and response. As a DBA I am evaluating the existing solutions on the market and ScyllaDB has been meeting the needs.
A Breeze to Get Started
What do you like best about the product?
It was super easy to download the product and configure the variables and CQL driver to get started.
What do you dislike about the product?
I am new to Cassandra Query Language and found it a bit challenging. Wish I could use more common query language that I am familiar with.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
One of the biggest issues our departments face is compatibility. ScyllaDB seems to be able to solve that by allowing us to integrate via the CQL driver, such as integrating with Kubernetes.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Use the tutorials that are on the documentation site before trying to start the integration process
Highly Performant & Low latency database
What do you like best about the product?
Low latency and High throughput. Monitoring and auto data replication. Token aware Scylla driver is increasing the performance.
What do you dislike about the product?
Need for SSD and high-end computing machine.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Storing the big data and retrieving it in milliseconds for increasing the customer experience
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Consider using ScyllaDB if you are looking for high resilient, high throughput and low latency NOSQL database
ScyllaDB is a marvelous option for developing your Go API
What do you like best about the product?
It is so easy to deploy that it is scary! Before using it I was stuck with other options that either didn't solve my problems completely or were super complicated to set up in my infrastructure. ScyllaDB on the other hand, is magically easy!
What do you dislike about the product?
It could have a GUI for the open-source version, but to be honest I understand that being a Open Source project, some features are only offered in a commercial licence.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I needed ScyllaDB for implementing a Video and Audio engineering codec repository so I could catalog videos and audios for my company, The main benefit is not being stuck to domain modelling like in a SQL database, which is mandatory when you are dealing with video and audio codec metadata.
Maybe the faster NoSQL database
What do you like best about the product?
Its price is not high for everything it offers, even if we don't use all its functions. It processes information in a short time. The company's customer service is excellent, and I love it.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is nothing really negative about ScyllaBD. It is a little difficult to understand for non-programmers or novices, but it is not an inaccessible program. It is excellent software for me.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We mainly use the software to generate reports. It is also helpful for backups and restores, especially in operations equipment. ScyllaDB quickly restores to the latest version when a problem occurs. We can even access previous versions in our database without interrupting the workflow.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Contact support if you don't understand something. The documentation is a bit sparse, but it is worth learning how to use it. I also highly recommend taking Scylla University to get the most out of the use of the program.
Great NoSQL Database as Cassandra Alternative
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of use and Cloud Native. Like Cassandra, but even better.
What do you dislike about the product?
So far, nothing to report. We also use Azure, and it's not yet there yet.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
A large scale distributed DB in the cloud where Cassandra was also being considered
Extremely Powerful Database, and Education System
What do you like best about the product?
Scylla DB has helped us scale an extensive event-driven system within my company that is at the core of our product, fearlessly and seemlessly. It's a system that can't afford any potential downtime, and with Scylla at the heart, our read and write latencies have been excellent even at our peak hours! Another thing I love about the Scylla Org is Scylla University, it provides extremely helpful resources getting up and running with Scylla, and also best practices in how to model data, which is extremely helpful as I come from a relational database background.
What do you dislike about the product?
Coming from a developer background, I still find the overhead of manual deployments a painful experience, between standing up EC2 instances on AWS and making sure configs match can be a source of a headache. Luckily the Scylla team has been pushing their K8 Operator forward so that I can get the benefits of a quick standup of a cluster.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are solving a significant issue of tech debt with Scylla. We've migrated our event-driven architecture where we collect our user's health stats and data through our platform that was written initially to a MongoDB store that was becoming an unwieldy monolith, to Scylla, which sped up our response times to customers when they wanted that data and also enabled us to store even more information robustly. We've unlocked ourselves from this monolithic architecture with Mongo to a highly extendable, modular platform with Scylla providing the performance we need at the scale we want at the heart of it all!
ScyllaDB review
What do you like best about the product?
One of the best NoSQL Database in my opinion is the ScyllaDB. The Scylla clusters with automatic backup are accessed by ScyllaDB, I like the performance of ScyllaDB and security hardening aswell.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike about the context switch, the threads require a context switch that is slow and also the lack of multi partition transactions, these are dislikes in my opinion.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The problems I'm solving with ScyllaDB is to store the unstructured data. And also the cloud is the best. I can manage clusters with automatic backup as well. So overall ScyllaDB is the best in my opinion.
Promising
What do you like best about the product?
The alternative solution for Cassandra to improve the performance while using Janus Graph is to store the data in a graph structure
What do you dislike about the product?
It would have been great to see reference/sample configuration for Scylla db with Janus graph to achieve greater performance. currently, it is missing
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are trying to improve the performance of the back-end system while using Janus graph for storing data in a graph structure.
One of the best NoSQL Database
What do you like best about the product?
ScyllaDB is extremely fast when it comes to the processing of data. It works without any latency with High-intensity applications. When it comes to technology, the whole codebase is open source. It means that you can also contribute to the project. The multi-core servers, along with the database's compatibility with Cassandra and DynamoDB, are beneficial. Also, there is the ScyllaDB university for those who want to learn about NoSQL from scratch and get a certification. ScyllaDB is scalable with always on availability with high throughputs.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have used ScyllaDB and have taken ScyllaDB's courses. I haven't found any problem so far. So, nothing to dislike from my side. Some more programs related to the DevRel part can be good. Also, the documentation is well documented, but a "write for us" program will be amazing.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
There are several problems that I was facing before using ScyllaDB. I was having trouble with data processing and latency. Thanks to ScyllaDB for solving that. Plus, I had to manage my database manually, but with ScyllaDB, I got to experience a fully managed service.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I highly recommend others to use ScyllaDB to get a fully managed, open-source, and scalable NoSQL database experience.
