Cassandra and ScyllaDB at Yahoo! Japan

Yahoo! JAPAN is one of the most successful internet service companies in Japan. Their NoSQL Team's Takahiro Iwase and Murukesh Mohanan have been testing out ScyllaDB, comparing it with Cassandra on multiple parameters: performance (both throughout and latency), reliability and ease of use. They will discuss the motivations behind their search for a successor of Cassandra that can handle exceedingly heavy traffic, and their evaluation of ScyllaDB in this regard.
