ScyllaDB Reviews Summary
Author infoRatingReview Summary
Lead Network Engineer at First Orion4.0I use ScyllaDB to store customer data in a distributed system. Its synchronization and failover features are valuable, though proper configuration is crucial. We faced data sync issues due to a closed security port, resolved by opening it.
Director of Engineering at Ola4.0We use ScyllaDB as our single source of truth for managing massive data related to mobility, encompassing twenty clusters and over a hundred nodes. Despite the initial appeal over Cassandra, we experienced unmet promises regarding ROI, compaction, and support.
Senior Database Administrator at Interswitch4.0We chose ScyllaDB for its scalability and performance, crucial for our business model that requires handling heavy read and write operations across applications. Although some NoSQL commands are incompatible, its speed in querying data from nodes is impressive.
Senior Software Engineer at Extramarks Education India3.5We switched to ScyllaDB from MongoDB due to security concerns. I appreciate ScyllaDB's fast updates and CDC, though it lags in performance. Despite incomplete documentation, it's a secure, performance-optimizing option with built-in logs, enhancing safety and efficiency.
Staff DBRE at SecurityScorecard3.5In our experience with ScyllaDB, its speed and ability to handle high volumes of data are valuable, though it struggles with deletions and transaction handling. Despite its quality, we haven't achieved the expected returns, impacting our investment justification.
Software Analyst at CLSA2.5I found ScyllaDB fast and robust for large-scale deployments, but setup complexity and misleading operation counts make alternatives like ClickHouse more appealing. While ScyllaDB works well with dedicated resources, simpler databases offer similar benefits and ease of use.
Enterprise Account Manager at Frameworks4.5I use ScyllaDB to present real-time information for a large system dashboard. The interface is very easy to use, and the solution excels in accessing time series data quickly. There are currently no areas needing improvement.
Co-Founder & CEO at SaYukth Private Limited5.0We use ScyllaDB as a non-relational database for storing audit logs and image data in AWS. Its performance, due to Seastar, surpasses Cassandra and integrates easily. Setup can be challenging without optimal resources, unlike MongoDB previously used.
