Summary

ScyllaDB announced its acquisition of Seastar.io's database-as-a-service technology from Network Redux, aiming to enhance its enterprise offerings by providing cloud-hosted ScyllaDB solutions on platforms like AWS, GCE, and Azure. This acquisition addresses the demand for scalable, cost-effective, and easily managed cloud databases, leveraging Seastar.io's capabilities to automate and secure the deployment of Apache Cassandra-compatible databases. A notable feature introduced is the ScyllaDB Test Drive, which allows users to quickly deploy a cluster on AWS for testing purposes, with the integration expected to fully materialize by 2018, promising a self-service product addition to ScyllaDB's portfolio. The new capabilities will be showcased at the upcoming ScyllaDB Summit 2017.
