Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about our ScyllaDB consulting services
How does ScyllaDB compare to Apache Cassandra?
ScyllaDB is a drop-in replacement for Cassandra, rewritten in C++ with a shard-per-core architecture. It delivers 10x better throughput, 10x lower latency, and uses significantly less hardware. ScyllaDB is fully compatible with Cassandra Query Language (CQL) and drivers.
What's the migration path from Cassandra to ScyllaDB?
Migration options include live migration using ScyllaDB Migrator, SSTable-based migration for offline scenarios, and dual-write patterns for zero-downtime transitions. We handle schema conversion, data validation, and application cutover with minimal disruption.
Can ScyllaDB replace DynamoDB using Alternator?
Yes, ScyllaDB Alternator provides a DynamoDB-compatible API, allowing applications to switch from DynamoDB to ScyllaDB with minimal code changes. This eliminates vendor lock-in and can reduce costs by up to 90% while improving performance.
What's ScyllaDB's performance advantage?
ScyllaDB's shard-per-core architecture eliminates the JVM overhead of Cassandra, providing predictable low latency under load. It can handle millions of operations per second on commodity hardware with P99 latencies under 10ms.
How do you handle ScyllaDB security?
We implement comprehensive security including TLS encryption, authentication, role-based access control, audit logging, and network isolation. We also configure ScyllaDB Enterprise features like encryption at rest and LDAP integration.
What monitoring do you provide for ScyllaDB?
We deploy ScyllaDB Monitoring Stack (Prometheus + Grafana) with custom dashboards for cluster health, latency percentiles, compaction, and capacity planning. We also set up alerting for proactive issue detection and resolution.
