@felipemendes recently wrote an in-depth blog post comparing the performance of scaling a ScyllaDB cluster, using Tablets, to a Cassandra cluster, using vNodes.
Being able to scale a cluster fast translates to lower total cost of ownership, easier maintenance, better availability, and consistency.
Felipe delves into the Architectural details, explaining how it’s done with ScyllaDB, how it’s done with Cassandra, and the performance difference (spoiler alert: ScyllaDB scales 7.2X faster).
This would be a great place to discuss the post and this topic in general.
