Wasn't ScyllaDB designed to be a drop in? The idea of running a Java or Golang DB sounds like fresh hell to me.

- kapperchino 1mo agoIssue is that it’s no longer open source
- 361994752 1mo agoWhy is java bad here...? Because of GC?
- kev009 1mo agoDirectly and indirectly, there are a lot of other knock on effects. Value objects (only recently being added) help. You could treat it similar to an HFT application, having ephemeral workers that don't do GC and dies on heap exhaustion, with a NIO coordinator that tries to avoid all garbage creation. But why at this point, square peg round hole.
- javier2 1mo agoyeah, i suppose one could start with scylladb as their base today.
- javier2 1mo agoits not a drop in. There is no reasonable way of replacing a huge existing cassandra cluster with scylladb. You have to transition as it was a new database.
