Cassandra doesn't require Zookeeper
2 comments

Ah, good to know. Our admins set up Zookeeper with Cassandra, so I had always assumed it was part of the deal.
And Scylladb may have a better thread-per-core model and no GC pauses, it basically has the exact same management challenges as Cassandra.

The parent comment almost seems generated by AI.

Dumb statements all around, but clearly you've never been in a Cassandra environment vs Scylla. Scylla is far, far more reliable, easier to get up and running, and required a bit less supervision than Cassandra.
