    Best Performance and Low Latency with NoSQL Database (ScyllaDB)

    02/24/2026
    "I like ScyllaDB's performance, especially because it's impacted by its indexing and the whole database being written in C++, which serves as the building block for a faster NoSQL DB. It's great for storing our ERP system, especially as we introduce new features and are unsure about the schema size. This NoSQL wide column structure allows us to store a wide range of data. Performance is great..."

    Blazing Fast Performance and Seamless Cassandra Compatibility

    11/12/2025
    "The performance is really impressive - we're seeing much lower latency and way better throughput compared to what we had before. The fact that it's compatible with Cassandra made our migration pretty smooth, and honestly, the speed improvements alone made it worth the switch."

    Great NoSQL database for scaling and real-time data processing

    09/05/2025
    "I like that ScyllaDB can handle very large amounts of data quickly and smoothly. It is easy to add more servers as our data grows, and the system balances the data across nodes on its own. It works well for real-time data processing and has been very reliable with no major downtime. I also like their initiatives to organize various events regarding how to use scylladb in various fields."

    From Cassandra to ScyllaDB: Why I Made the Switch

    03/11/2025
    "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..."

    A solid database choice for real-time systems

    04/09/2025
    "My best thing about ScyllaDB is the way it performs under heavy load. We've got a live analytics service we're utilizing, and ScyllaDB doesn't even break a sweat at a million hits per minute. The fact that it's C++-based means that it's more system-efficient than some NoSQL databases we've worked with in the past. We also save on hardware since we don't need as many servers to get the same..."
