From Cassandra to ScyllaDB: Why I Made the Switch
What do you like best about the product?
The most important thing about ScyllaDB is it's performance. As it's written in C++ it's super super fast as compared to cassandra which is written in java. This means no garbage collection pauses, lower CPU overhead, and significantly better resource utilization. Also, one more important thing is Shard-Per-Core Architecture, This eliminates inter-core contention and boosts throughput dramatically. It also provides better scalability over very less numbers of nodes And The best part? ScyllaDB is fully compatible with Cassandra’s APIs and query language (CQL). This means you can migrate from Cassandra to ScyllaDB with minimal effort and you get massive performance improvements.
What do you dislike about the product?
ScyllaDB is 100% compatible with Cassandra’s CQL, but the broader ecosystem—third-party tools, integrations, and community plugins—is still catching up. Some tools designed for Cassandra may not work perfectly out of the box with ScyllaDB. ScyllaDB allows you to do more with fewer nodes, which is great. But the hardware requirements can be more demanding, and if you go with the Enterprise edition or Scylla Cloud, licensing costs could be a factor for some businesses.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use ScyllaDB’s Database-as-a-Service for a project that deals with a massive amount of data points—things like measuring heartbeats and signals in real time. Handling this kind of high-frequency data storage isn’t easy, but ScyllaDB makes it seamless.
High Throughput & Low Latency: The data comes in fast, and ScyllaDB handles it without lag.
Scalability Without the Hassle: I don’t have to worry about scaling manually. As the data grows, ScyllaDB scales with it.
Zero Ops Overhead: Since I’m using it as a managed service, I don’t have to spend time tuning or maintaining the database—it just works.

Something could wait. others will not.
What do you like best about the product?
Did you know when so mething could not wait ? like a payment ? that is why you should use a faster database in some moments.
What do you dislike about the product?
The memory fingerprint is a pretty high it cause some problem to use into small projects.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are planning to use as a intermediary database to fast access and pos processing data.
ScyllaDB: Fast, scalable and cost efficient
What do you like best about the product?
the first thing that I would say about ScyllaDB is that it stands out on its speed and efficiency. It has the capability of large workloads with low latency and makes its an ideal choice for real time applications. It is fully compatible with Cassandra and delivers much better performance with low hardware costs. I also appreciate its automatic shard management as it simplifies scaling. It is fast, scalable and cost efficient.
What do you dislike about the product?
It requires a thorough understanding of its architecture for setting it up. advanced features and integrations needs extra work.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
ScyllaDB can handle huge workloads ensuring speed and efficiency and saving time and resources. It keeps apps running quickly without needing extra hardware.
We had heard alot abot SycllaDB, but now I will recommend for use to everyone
What do you like best about the product?
ScyllaDB has shorter queries and is easy to write as compared to MSSQL
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing found as such to dislike for ScyllaDB.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Its easier to use, and queries are easier as compared to other RDS services.
I first got to know about it at Monster Scale Summit and since then its been an amazing experience
What do you like best about the product?
The thing i liked the most about ScyllaDB is its user friendliness and ease of integration with other platforms.
What do you dislike about the product?
Its performance needs to be improved and the team needs to work on the scalability.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
ScyllaDB is basically plays the role of a NoSQL Cloud Database service, which serves the purpose of handling the data read/write requests.
We are using ScyllaDB in production, at large scale, and recommend to everyone
What do you like best about the product?
Horizontally scalable, optimized for heavy writes, but also good with well-designed reads.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are well known trade-offs which you have to understand when choosing any NoSQL db instead of any relational: eventual consistency, joins, transactions etc.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our platform is serving large number of users, as well as high volume of content. We are using ScyllaDB to store the state. As the audience is distributed, we are benefiting from geo-distributed cluster which accepts the write at the region where the user is located, and making it eventually consistent across the globe.
Traditional, vertically-scalable databases, while having other valuable attributes (such as ACID) are not well suited for globally distributed and horizontally scalable set ups.

ScyllaDB the performance monster.
What do you like best about the product?
We are one of the biggest companies from Bangladesh. We use ScyllaDB on our workload. We server around 20+ countries. By utilizing this database we have reached to this cap with little to no performance issue.
What do you dislike about the product?
ScyllaDB uses very high-end hardware to unleash the whole power of ScyllaDB. That's put a pressure on the cost.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are serving almost 20+ countries like UK, US most of EU countries. In traditional No-SQL database we found high latency issue, and there was complexity while setting these databases but this is where ScyllaDB solved our issues.
High Perfomance NOSQL solution
What do you like best about the product?
I have come across scylladb through bytebytego.com youtube video, wherein discord uses scylladb for storing its trillions of messages in the DB
What I understood is that it has capabilities like
High Performance ,Ease of Integration/Implementation,
Seamless Scalability and Cassandra Compatibilty
Although I have to see how it scales in my company, we are currently using Cassandra but doing a POC to use scylladb
I have personally used this in a personal project, real-time Finance Tracker. I didn't face many issues while configuring or using it.

What do you dislike about the product?
There is a learning curve; its a bit different from other DBs.
Also, with little documentation,n sometimes its difficult to find solutions in Reddit or StackOverflow; this will improve overtime.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
low-latency design means faster data processing, allowing interact with your data in real time without delays.(This has helped me, I have to yet go through this DB in deep)
SycllaDB is remarkable!
What do you like best about the product?
It's really fast and great for our use case (we store data as protobuf records)
What do you dislike about the product?
Filtering and counting are not one of the strengths of ScyllaDB
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
ScyllaDB scales impressively by adding more machines, thanks to its efficient design that maximizes hardware use. Its stability comes from predictable performance and a robust architecture, making it reliable even under heavy loads.
