Predictable, Ultra-Low Latency Performance at Scale with ScyllaDB

  • March 12, 2026
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
ScyllaDB delivers extremely low latency and high throughput at scale, so it keeps performance predictable even under heavy load. Its shard-per-core architecture and efficient I/O scheduling let it fully utilize modern hardware without constant tuning, which reduces the number of nodes we need. I also like that it is largely Cassandra-compatible while being much faster, so you get a familiar data model and ecosystem with better tail latencies.
What do you dislike about the product?
ScyllaDB still has a learning curve, especially around data modeling and capacity planning; if you get the model or infrastructure wrong, performance can degrade quickly. It also expects solid hardware and careful storage and memory choices, so it is less forgiving than simpler databases and can feel like overkill for small or generic workloads.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
ScyllaDB solves the need for consistently low-latency reads and writes on large, write-heavy workloads where traditional relational databases or slower NoSQL options would struggle. This lets us handle real-time, high-throughput use cases (like event ingestion and time-series or key-value access) on fewer nodes, lowering infrastructure costs while meeting strict SLAs.

Smooth Transition, Better Speed with Dedicated Support

  • March 12, 2026
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like ScyllaDB's customer support because there's a specific person available every time, so I don't have to explain my issue to different people each time. I also switched to ScyllaDB from AWS Cassandra due to its better speed and performance. The initial setup was smooth.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I find the customer support really helpful, with a dedicated person available to avoid repeating issues. We switched from AWS Cassandra for better speed and performance.

Efficient Data Storage with ScyllaDB's Sharding and Performance

  • March 11, 2026
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I appreciate ScyllaDB's sharding and native change data capture, which are pretty significant features that stand out for me. The performance is really a big plus, making it faster for me to get to market. These aspects are crucial, especially when dealing with NoSQL data storage.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike the Docker distribution.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
ScyllaDB helps me store NoSQL data efficiently, with features like sharding and native change data capture enhancing performance and speeding up our go-to-market efforts.

Efficient Scaling with Top-Class Compatibility

  • March 11, 2026
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I use ScyllaDB for efficient storage. I appreciate its tail latency guarantees and the fact that it scales well beyond my needs, so I don't need to worry about migrating anywhere. I like its compatibility with CQL and the custom extensions that are performance-oriented, such as bypassing the cache for certain queries. I find their Rust driver to be top class for both ScyllaDB and Cassandra, and it's important because latency-sensitive systems are often built in Rust. I also enjoy that the whole ecosystem of tools that works with Cassandra works with ScyllaDB too. The initial setup was easy to follow from the docs.
What do you dislike about the product?
I sometimes wish for more SQL compatibility, like being able to send a complex query that joins multiple tables.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I trust ScyllaDB's tail latency guarantees and its scalability beyond my needs, so I don't need to worry about migrating. It provides efficient storage.

High-Performance, Needs Better Documentation

  • March 11, 2026
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like the vector search feature in ScyllaDB because it means I do not need a separate vector database. The initial setup was quite easy for me because it's not so different from other tools, and there are a lot of tutorials available on the internet.
What do you dislike about the product?
I find the documentation and tutorials lacking. They could really use more detailed examples for vector search.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use ScyllaDB for handling large volumes of concurrent reads. The vector search means I don't need a separate vector database, which I find valuable.
