Hello everyone, I am searching for the appropriate solution for a financial use case. I want to handle user balancing in a distributed way. I did a little research and have found YugabyteDB as a solution that offers distributed ACID. Although, I have also found that Scylla seems great in terms of TPS. So I wonder which solutions fit better, or maybe there is another great option I am not considering.

Please guys, what do you think?

Erick,

While Yugabyte & ScyllaDB are great options they both come with their own inherit limitations. If I had to chose between the two, I'd go with Scylla. However, I'd highly consider taking a look at Aerospike, as it really shines where those other two options fall short.

Aerospike, is the global leader in next generation real-time NoSQL data solutions. We power instant payment transactions for The European Central Bank, transaction fraud for PayPal and Barclays, identity resolution for LexisNexis Risk Solutions, and pre-trade risk mitigation at Charles Schwab.

Our ability to deliver superior performance on significantly less hardware combined with our multi model approach is why you should consider taking a look. Don't take my word for it. Here is a list of user talks and benchmarks that should paint a pretty clear picture.

At Pushnami we were using Redis for quite a long time, and still do for disposable caches. However as we continued to grow, we started to feel limitations of keeping data sets in memory, and only being able to use 1 CPU per server. We started to look around. Our requirements were pretty clear: - Very fast reads and writes (sub ms) - Ability to hold Terabytes of data - Ability to horizontally scale - Strong support for TTL and data eviction After looking at several alternatives we decided on Scylla , which had familiar Cassandra interface but claimed to be much faster. 2 years later - we run a cluster of 6 nodes that holds over 20 TB of data, and performs 150,000 operations per second. I would say pretty impressive! It was also easy to get started on AWS, as ScyllaDB provides prebuilt AMI with optimal configurations baked in.
