PALO ALTO, CALIF. — Sept. 2, 2020 — ScyllaDB today announced a major new update to its ScyllaDB Migrator tool, which now enables live replication of DynamoDB databases to ScyllaDB NoSQL databases in a single step. The new capabilities give DynamoDB users an easy way to tap ScyllaDB’s superior performance and lower overall costs.
Database cloning has never been simpler. ScyllaDB Migrator uses Spark to duplicate existing tables, automatically capturing the live stream of changes and directing them to the ScyllaDB database.
Organizations using DynamoDB can now quickly move to hybrid or multi-cloud database deployments, with some data on DynamoDB servers and some on ScyllaDB with complete synchronization. ScyllaDB Migrator supports entire DynamoDB database migrations as well.
“Change data streams unlock simple data synchronization,” said Itamar Ravid, Co-founder and Principal Architect of Fast Data at Ziverge. “ScyllaDB’s amazing efficiency makes it a superior platform for data-intensive workloads, and we’re excited to help evolve its support for change streams.”
ScyllaDB Migrator takes advantage of ScyllaDB’s Alternator interface, a DynamoDB-compatible API that provides superior price-performance and flexible deployment options. Alternator gives developers greater control over large-scale, real-time big data deployments, starting with costs. A typical ScyllaDB cluster will cost 80%-90% less than the equivalent DynamoDB deployment. Benchmarks demonstrate that ScyllaDB performs as much as 10X faster than DynamoDB while also achieving consistently lower latencies.
“We’ve taken our DynamoDB-compatible API to another level by integrating DynamoDB’s streaming capabilities into ScyllaDB,” said Dor Laor, CEO and Co-Founder, ScyllaDB. “Now DynamoDB users can easily migrate or extend their systems to a faster, more reliable, more cost-effective platform.”
ScyllaDB’s advantages over DynamoDB include:
