But if only were databases that simple!  [ ![Preethica Furtado](/assets/transparent-ad5be28fbcd25b7b08d2cebe1d957125437fb5407d75ee717965ad22c8808791.gif "Preethica Furtado") PF ](https://learn.g2.com/author/preethica-furtado) by Preethica Furtado ## Database as a Service (DBaaS) Providers Discussions 0 Question on: ScyllaDB [Can I use ScyllaDB as a cache replacement?](/discussions/can-i-use-scylladb-as-a-cache-replacement) **Can I use ScyllaDB as a cache replacement?** ScyllaDB includes an integrated, highly efficient caching layer as part of its core design. This internal cache is engineered to provide predictable, low-latency performance even at massive scales. Because of this, many organizations have successfully replaced external caching tiers like Redis, ElastiCache, or DAX with ScyllaDB. For those using DynamoDB, ScyllaDB can act as both the primary database and the cache (replacing the need for DAX) through its DynamoDB-compatible API, leading to reduced architectural complexity and lower infrastructure costs.

Its close-to-the-metal architecture squeezes every ounce of power from the hardware for impressive price-performance. With ScyllaDB Alternator, a native DynamoDB-compatible API, users can run their DynamoDB workloads anywhere – without code changes. Some other aspects to highlight include: - ScyllaDB was benchmarked at 40.9X (provisioned) to 282.5X (on-demand) lower costs - ScyllaDB demonstrated up to 4X better P99 latency - ScyllaDB achieves single-digital ms latencies without an external cache - ScyllaDB does not throttle or imposes any partition size restrictions on your data by default Answered: Felipe Cardeneti Mendes on April 6, 2026 [Your answer](/discussions/how-does-scylladb-compare-to-dynamodb/comments/new?remote=true) 0 Question on: ScyllaDB [How does ScyllaDB compare to Cassandra?](/discussions/how-does-scylladb-compare-to-cassandra) **How does ScyllaDB compare to Cassandra?** ScyllaDB was built from the ground up to achieve predictable low latency and operational simplicity at scale. Its close-to-the-metal architecture squeezes every ounce of power from the hardware – so users can achieve better performance on fewer nodes. With a similar architecture, data format, and query language as Cassandra, users eliminate Cassandra pains without major refactoring. Some other key aspects include: (1) ScyllaDB has 2X-5X better throughput and much better latencies than Cassandra. (2) ScyllaDB adds and replaces nodes far faster than Cassandra. (3) ScyllaDB finishes compaction 32X faster than Cassandra. (4) A ScyllaDB cluster can be 10X smaller and 2.5X less expensive, yet still outperform Cassandra by 42%. (5) ScyllaDB scales 7.2X faster than Cassandra (9× with cleanup), sustaining ~3.5X higher throughput with fewer errors.
