Blog post from ScyllaDB
ScyllaDB Enterprise 2019.1.4 has been released, bringing enhancements focused on stability, storage efficiency, and IPv6 support for high-performance real-time big data workloads. The update introduces the Incremental Compaction Strategy (ICS), which addresses the temporary disk usage issue of the previous Size Tiered Compaction Strategy (STCS) by breaking large SSTables into smaller chunks, allowing for more efficient disk usage and potentially reducing storage costs by over a third. This version also supports IPv6 for client-to-node and node-to-node communication, aligning with the depletion of IPv4 addresses. The release addresses several stability issues, including core dumps and handling of end-of-disk space states, ensuring a more robust user experience.
