ScyllaDB release: version 0.14

The ScyllaDB team is pleased to announce the release of ScyllaDB version 0.14

ScyllaDB is an open source, Cassandra-compatible NoSQL database, with superior performance and consistent low latency.
This version is an incremental improvement release on the beta series, focus on stability and bug fix. Some of the noteworthy updates are:

  • ScyllaDB does not consume 100% CPU when idle anymore
  • By default, ScyllaDB will not run without XFS. Use --developer-mode true option to bypass this mechanism to run without XFS. Note that running in developer mode (without XFS) will result in inferior performance. The Docker image always use developer-mode.
  • CQL: TRUNCATE TABLE alias for TRUNCATE

A full list of contributions and known issues is available on the ScyllaDB wiki
