Efficient, Fast and Secured
What do you like best about the product?
Speed of transactions and the cconsistencyachieved are instrumental in all scenarios and the life cycle of a project.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is nothing in particular that I dislike about Scylla DB. However, the pricing tier is a minimal issue, in my opinion.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Scylla DB as fast, reliable, secured backend database solution

Incredible speed, easy to set up and use.
What do you like best about the product?
How easy it is to set up and use with the ScyllaDB university.
What do you dislike about the product?
They should have a simple best vs worst use cases in comparing against their competitors.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Very large datasets that only need to be efficienctlh queried with 1 or 2 columns. This is far faster with ScyllaDB.
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
Monster of a Database
What do you like best about the product?
I like the cluster architecture of ScyllaDB. There aren't any leaders, followers, replicas, etc. All nodes in a cluster are equal. If aqueried node does not have that data, it will reach the other nodes to find who has the data. This querying architecture makes it very easy for developers to write applications using ScyllaDB and for operators to set up and maintain clusters.
What do you dislike about the product?
Scylla Cloud does not support Terraform. I looked into the offering last year and making changes to a cluster requires emailing the support team. My company already uses Terraform for Infrastructure as Code and we wanted to use Terraform for Scylla Cloud.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are solving the need for reading/write latency on over 1TB of data in less than 5ms with ScyllaDB. Our main application needs to respond very quickly and we have used ScyllaDB to replace PostgreSQL and Redis. The benefits here are lower cloud costs and less complexity.
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
A good database system
What do you like best about the product?
Our dev team was I have attended Scylla University courses to understand the functioning and have to say its been a thorough session with hands on labs. Now I understand how to use it. Scylla is great, go for it. exploring options on improving DB results and we had 3-4 options ready to test. Scylla DB definitely was performing better and we found it to be safe and easy to use as well.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not many issues were found in the test phase. But maybe we could see some when and if we implement more heavy microservices and deploy them to real-time testing.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Right now the team uses MySQL which is fine for the monolith. But moving to cloud storage, we really need a strong DB management system and we think Scylla is capable of supporting our apps.
New to the Space but faster
What do you like best about the product?
Fast queries make it very useful for us, especially here at Sharechat, where we have a very big userbase, a performant DB is a great way. Also, its 99.9% uptime with excellent support team makes it just the thing we need.
What do you dislike about the product?
Frankly haven't found any till now, but the license (Affero) seems too restrictive at times,it is something that can be looked into. Also, scyllaDB can try developing its learning platform like MongoDB University, which can motivate more developers or tech firms to take it up.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have many use cases of NoSQL databases, and to solve those we use MongoDB and BigTable but with ScyllaDB in picture we will try to harness its speed which will make our systems more performant.
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.
