High-throughput NoSQL database compatible with Cassandra and DynamoDB
Updated
ScyllaDB is a distributed NoSQL database that supports CQL and is compatible with the Cassandra and DynamoDB APIs. The vendor says its shard-per-core architecture delivers low latency and high throughput.
Teams run ScyllaDB Cloud as a managed service or deploy Enterprise on their own infrastructure. Cloud billing depends on instance type, NVMe storage, service tier and deployment model, with no per-request charges. One daily backup is included.
ScyllaDB is used by engineering teams running high-throughput, low-latency workloads, and the vendor claims cost reductions of 50 percent or more versus DynamoDB for such workloads.
ScyllaDB does not list prices. Cloud users estimate costs in the pricing calculator and Enterprise is quoted. Cloud tiers are Standard, Professional and Premium. There is a 30-day Developer Free Trial on small instances and a 48-hour Production Evaluation, and commitments include On-Demand, 1 or 3 year subscriptions and Flex Credits.
The pricing page lists no third-party integrations; ScyllaDB is compatible with the Cassandra and DynamoDB APIs.
CockroachDB is a distributed SQL database with strong consistency and SQL semantics, unlike ScyllaDB's wide-column model. Supabase is a Postgres platform with auth and APIs for app development. PlanetScale is managed MySQL and Postgres, so these suit relational workloads rather than high-throughput NoSQL.
