Introducing ScyllaDB Enterprise 2022.1

ScyllaDB announced the release of ScyllaDB Enterprise 2022.1, building upon its open-source NoSQL database with enhanced reliability and new enterprise-specific features. This release introduces support for AWS EC2 I4i instances, offering improved performance over previous models, and expands compatibility to Arm-based systems. Key features include Change Data Capture (CDC) for tracking database changes, LDAP integration for authentication and authorization, and granular timeout controls for individual queries. Improvements have been made to the I/O scheduler and SSTable index caching, enhancing performance and reducing latency. The release also includes updates to ScyllaDB's cloud formation and reverse queries, and introduces new virtual tables for configuration management. A new release cycle strategy, incorporating both Long Term Support (LTS) and Short Term Support (STS) releases, aims to deliver features to enterprise customers more frequently. Existing customers can upgrade with support, while a 30-day trial is available for newcomers, alongside educational resources through ScyllaDB University.
