How ScyllaDB CEO Dor Laor grew to $25M revenue with a 167 person team in 2023.

At ScyllaDB, we develop Scylla, a cutting-edge Cassandra-compatible NoSQL database capable of handling 1 million transactions per second on a single server. We meticulously employ our deep knowledge of low-level systems to enhance our Big Data solutions. Our architecture is designed with precision; data structures are optimized to avoid crossing CPU cachelines, poll-mode drivers are preferred to minimize the overhead of interrupts, disk access patterns are carefully analyzed to reduce write amplification, and our caches are engineered to be resistant to unnecessary scans. We take pride in our custom task scheduler and our ability to bypass the TCP/IP kernel, pushing the boundaries of performance and efficiency.

We leverage the latest advancements in technology, utilizing C++14 and GCC 5.1 to tap into the forefront of programming capabilities. Furthermore, we are excited by the potential of leveraging commodity non-volatile random access memory (NVRAM) to redefine database storage.

Originally known as Cloudius Systems, ScyllaDB emerged from a foundation of open-source commitment, led by pioneers of the KVM hypervisor. Our team comprises industry luminaries with extensive experience in virtualization, databases, and operating systems. We are proud contributors to the OSv and Seastar open source projects, demonstrating our ongoing commitment to innovation and community development.
