Dynamic Status Timeouts in ScyllaDB Manager 2.2
Blog post from ScyllaDB
ScyllaDB Manager 2.2 introduces dynamic timeouts to improve health check processes, offering a more adaptive approach compared to static configurations. This enhancement is particularly beneficial in managing multiple clusters across varied datacenters, where latencies differ significantly. Dynamic timeouts calculate the optimal timeout based on recent response time measurements, allowing the system to better handle gradual increases in response time while remaining user-friendly by minimizing manual configuration. This update complements ScyllaDB Manager's existing features for cluster maintenance, such as backup and repair processes, making it a more robust tool for maintaining ScyllaDB clusters. Additionally, the new version continues to support fixed timeout configurations, but prioritizes dynamic settings if enabled, enhancing overall efficiency and adaptability in diverse network conditions.
