Worry Less and Trust Scylla
What do you like best about the product?
Scylla has been with our engineering team as a native data store for our production environment. With an organization that's growing and rapidly building with microservices, the need for consistent and reliable data operations simultaneously on the same data by all those microservices increases a lot. But thanks to Scylla that enables us to meet the customer expectations with such low latency provisioning. Not only that but also we are able to provide high-standard experiences that are personalized for the specific target of users rapidly, as Scylla allows us to operate on profiles with the least possible latency.
What do you dislike about the product?
Well, we would like to see more production use cases with best practices implemented for those belonging to different industries.
Moreover, the enterprise plan can be more flexible so that the organizations will easily manage the finances in case they wanna switch and try.
Last but not the least, Scylla University is a great initiative for training but we would love to see more professional standard curriculums for the corporate employees to train with.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
ScyllaDB has been robust and fast for our use cases and we even trust it with our production loads. The most notable thing is its low-latency structure which is very true while you're running the loads which save time and resources and indeed help cut off the cost. Another great thing is that it's almost likely synonymous with Cassandra and the Query Language is not so different from the standard.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would suggest that one must know the use cases for which they want to use ScyllaDB before taking the call. Scylla is absolutely awesome in providing low-latency data operations and hence is a must recommend DB.
Fast & Stress Free
What do you like best about the product?
Queries are really very responsive. The Speed when viewing the data and consistency are loved by the users. Report Analysis became very simple & easy after using ScyllaDB.
What do you dislike about the product?
The license cost was somewhat high, despite the benefits. There are many things that many organization teams may feel that ScyllaDB will be very helpful in their projects.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Device data querying helps to deliver value-added services to the business and the customers. Query writes are also very consistent. ScyllaDB infrastructure is very well managed & up-to-date.
Easy, Fast, Technical
What do you like best about the product?
It's technical but also easy to digest information, even for someone who is not a developer.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish the videos would show their upload dates so I know what is the latest and can filter my results based on most current.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Helps guide me to understand the new technologies and platforms we are currently encountering, like cloud, programming,data modeling, and devops
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try it out, set up a structure.
One of the fastest databases I've ever used!
What do you like best about the product?
The read and writes were extremely quick, that's so vital for our apps. I love how there was zero-config when it was installed on servers! It's also never been down since we've been on it, or if it has been down, we haven't noticed. It's been so reliable
What do you dislike about the product?
It's a bit more expensive than other solutions, but if you would like to skip all the hassle and unreliability of others and instead pay for a more premium product, then I'd highly suggest it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We currently use it to store a lot of customer data associated with some of our game development and website apps. We require pretty quick and reliable connections due to the nature of our work.
Easy to use and maintain
What do you like best about the product?
It's easy to install, and unlike other NoSQL databases, Scylla is easy to use, understand and maintain.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have been using it for over 6+ months, and I have not seen anything I disklike.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's much better than the ones we used before. Better performance than HBASE or Cassandra
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Give it a try and you'll enjoy working with it
Very well scalable NoSQL database
What do you like best about the product?
Scylla outperforms CockroachDB, Apache Cassandra and AWS DynamoDB by performance and scalability. Scylla is also open-source based backed with a great community.
What do you dislike about the product?
Currently, no desktop app solutions are available to manage databases. Only web, terminal and API access is the way to edit and collect data stored by ScyllaDB.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
ScyllaDB is easy to scale and deploy. It's flexible by default. Clusters can be easily managed, and nodes can be added or removed without issues. This is why it's easy to react to traffic spikes with Scylla.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Scylla provides free learning materials through their Scylla University platform. The classes introduces NoSQL databases as well as higlighting the advantages of Scylla compared to other NoSQL databases.
ScyllaDB is the best thing since NoSQL began
What do you like best about the product?
Easy drop-in replacement for Cassandra, no JVM means no GC, per-core architecture provides a more predictable workload, which leads to cost reduction and better scaling.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing. The product is awesome. You should replace your Cassandra cluster with ScyllaDB ASAP
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Performed a POC using ScyllaDB to save the historical and current states of many entities in our data platform to enable correct lookups when backfilling the data and have a fallback to default state
Great performance, simple to deploy. Just a bit hard to undestand some behaviors
What do you like best about the product?
Very performant (specially for writes). Reads are also pretty fast. Compaction strategies are a great tuning mechanism to optimize for read latency vs write latency. Simple to deploy on AWS EC2 with pre-built AMIs
What do you dislike about the product?
Hard to design schemas efficiently if you're coming from the SQL world. Also, some behaviors are a bit different than usual (like UPDATE queries running an insert-like operation if the row does not exist)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Storing time-series-like immutable events to be queried later on is incredible. Time Window Compaction Strategy works nicely for this workload. This enabled us to increase the TTL for our data, allowing for a more complete analysis when querying data while keeping low costs.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Use it if you need high performance and scalability
My ScyllaDB review and why this NoSQL DB rocks!
What do you like best about the product?
ScyllaDB offers the high performance and consistency that you would expect and need to run a variety of application use cases such as IoT and distributed systems with critical applications where high availability and performance are required.
What do you dislike about the product?
Price is on the higher side. But, it will pay for itself with great customer support, reliability, a product team that listens and enhances the product continuously.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have started off using NoSQL in many new application areas in production and POCs. The use cases are real-time data streaming and IoT. We experienced significant performance gains and cost benefits by switching to the ScyllaDB NoSQL setup.
Stress free time series database
What do you like best about the product?
Fast queries make for super responsive IoT apps. Our users love the speed and consistency when viewing device data. Combine that with 99.9% uptime over 2 years and excellent support.
What do you dislike about the product?
Pricey, but comparable to other solutions. Managed Enterprise offering made sense for us, but can see it being a roadblock for others. There was a bit of a learning curve. Recommend the Scylla University modules and user training sessions.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have many devices streaming data to the cloud. On the flip side, we have many users querying device data to help run their businesses. With managed ScyllaDB, we focus on delivering value add apps and services for our customers. We know that writes will be consistent and queries fast. ScyllaDB has reliably managed infrastructure - securing and optimizing the cluster, and keeping us up to date.
