Extremely Powerful Database, and Education System

  • February 10, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

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!

What do you like best about the product?
Scales well with good throughput /latency and costs are within our budget. Good support from the ScyllaDB team in answering the questions and helping us with our journey
What do you dislike about the product?
We heavily use Memcached and like the multi-get capability and would be nice to see that in ScyllaDB as well

Best NoSql database ScyllaDB

  • February 10, 2022
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
ScyllaDB is a high-performance NoSQL database that is compatible with Apache Cassandra. It includes a built-in caching layer that can improve performance for frequently-accessed data.Additionally, it has a number of built-in monitoring and management tools that can help you keep track of the performance and health of your database. Overall, it is a highly-performant and scalable NoSQL database that is well-suited for real-time big data applications.
What do you dislike about the product?
ScyllaDB can be complex to set up and manage, particularly for users unfamiliar with Apache Cassandra or other NoSQL databases. Its built-in monitoring and management tools may not be as comprehensive as some other options on the market. Also, the cost of a commercial license for ScyllaDB is higher than other open-source alternatives.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I can tell you that ScyllaDB is designed to solve several common problems associated with big data workloads. These include:

1.Advanced Data modeling features: it supports advanced features such as secondary indexes and materialized views, which can make it easier to query and analyze data.

2.Built-in monitoring and management tools: it has a number of built-in monitoring and management tools that can help you keep track of the performance and health of your database
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would definitely Recommend ScyllaDB as it's cost-effective as well as it's easy to use NoSQL database.

ScyllaDB review

  • February 10, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

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.

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.

Awesome NoSQL database for generating reports and complex queries

  • February 10, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
ScyllaDB is currently the best non-memory database to generate reports astonishingly faster. The worker node principle compared to the primary slave architecture of MongoDB, which I now use, is a huge bonus since I am not wasting any valuable system resources.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't get the confidence to use ScyllaDB as a full production use DB since I had a few instances where the DB terminated due to heavy load. It needs more time to mature and gain my trust for full-fledged standalone production usage.

Edit: The more recent versions of ScyllaDB are more stable. We have finally deployed the reporting server to our production environment running ScyllaDB and have faced no issues till now.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use ScyllaDB in our organization to generate reports. The time taken for report generation in ScyllaDB is significantly faster compared to MongoDB, which we are currently using as our main Production DB
Recommendations to others considering the product:
ScyllaDB is great if you want to generate reports or perform complex queries on millions of data

Highly performant NoSQL DB so far

  • February 10, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
We migrated our test environment DB from Cassandra to ScyllaDB and saw huge improvements in speed and consistency. The flexibility of having CQL and easy migration is an added bonus on top of the consistency.
What do you dislike about the product?
We haven't tried it production grade environment yet to find flaws, but one thing we didn't like is that the UI is a bit confusing at the beginning (especially for non-devs).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Being used in test environment for data heavy application which requires consistent data at all times! Making data available at a consistent rate, open-source, uses much faster language (C++) at core.
