What do you dislike about the product?
It's customer support and documentation part could be improved as when in trouble feels like a hurdle to continue the work
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
While working on huge data for our client we fel like speed and latency was a roadblock but with syclla db high performance and speed that too with low latency make it a best choice. It's easy to start with andintersting concept make it the best. Although price is bt expensive but over features compared to other competitive dbs equalises it.

If public cloud, private cloud, or hybrid cloud, which cloud provider do you use?
One of the best NoSQL db
What do you like best about the product?
Almost seamless integration. It has familer Query Language. Support the most of our business requirements. Its used in most of my pet projects. Open source development model.
What do you dislike about the product?
Its fairly a new db need to onboard new people.

Rewrite of Cassandra in C++ and uses a special library optimized for I/O operations and offers good documentation
What is our primary use case?
We use it as a non-relational database. We use it to store two things:
- To store audit log data and
- blob data, including images with different sizes, like 200kb.
We use it as an image database as well, such as user profile pictures and product catalog promotional pictures.
How has it helped my organization?
We got Free Community Software for Managing the Blob data for Cross Data Center & Distributed Cluster
What is most valuable?
ScyllaDB is a rewrite of Cassandra in C++ and uses a special library called Seastar, which was developed by ScyllaDB.
Seastar is optimized for I/O operations, which makes it very good compared to Cassandra. Like it's ten times better in terms of performance.
The documentation is good. It integrates easily with our existing data infrastructure.
What needs improvement?
If you don't have the best computing resources, then it's not easy to set up. In such cases, we have to run ScyllaDB in developer mode.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using it for Seven years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
I have never faced any problems. As per my use case and our environment, it is stable.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
It's pretty good. It offers everything we need at this time. It's a scalable product.
In my organization, all 55 people across six products use ScyllaDB.
How are customer service and support?
We have never contacted customer service and support. It's all working great. So, never needed the support
How would you rate customer service and support?
Positive
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
We tried MongoDB & Cassandra. It wasn't scalable at that time, like six or seven years ago. Then we moved to Cassandra and then ScyllaDB.
How was the initial setup?
With best computing resources: If you have good computing resources like CPUs, memory, and especially solid-state drives (SSDs), the installation and configuration are very easy.
Without the best computing resources: If you don't have the best computing resources, then it's not easy to set up. In such cases, we have to run ScyllaDB in developer mode.
What about the implementation team?
NO
What was our ROI?
YES
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
It's free. Only support is costly. So the support is an extra cost, which is expensive.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
We tried MongoDB & Cassandra. It wasn't scalable at that time, like six years ago. Then we moved to ScyllaDB.
What other advice do I have?
I would recommend to use it. It is easy for a beginner to learn to use ScyllaDB for the first time.
Overall, I would rate it a ten out of ten.

What do you dislike about the product?
I have limited background of NoSQL Databases. hence, for me, Learning Curve isone thing:
ScyllaDB can have a steep learning curve for those new to NoSQL databases or transitioning from SQL databases.
My other point of view is ScyllaDB can be Resource Intensive:
While it offers high performance, ScyllaDB can be resource-intensive, requiring careful planning and management of infrastructure.

we are currently using a managed Oracle DB.
Apart from the High end distributed applocations I am trying to understand How ScyllaDB's can be best and effective used for Not so Huge and highly intensive Datasets.
