Overall Satisfaction with DataStax Enterprise
DataStax Enterprise is the primary database for all transactional processing. DataStax Enterprise provides linear scale as well as multi-datacenter real-time replication of data such that we can maintain uptime even with the loss of multiple data centers. Keeping the system up and the data fresh is of paramount importance for our clients. Performance is also top of mind and DataStax Enterprise delivers best-in-class performance.
- Scaling
- Speed of data access
- Ease of use with those familiar with traditional SQL
- Best in class support team
- Hybrid on-prem / cloud solution with Astra.
- Better compatibility with prior versions in terms of codebase.
- Ability to have our services up and running even with a total outage at one of our data centers.
- No need to maintain windows since we can turn off data centers while doing maintenance and then put them back in the rotation and move on.
- If not keeping current with updates, updating from an older major version to a newer major version can be a bit complicated and time-consuming but DataStax Enterprise support will help with this.
I believe DataStax Enterprise is the best in class. There are some things that are different with the schema-less systems but I found DataStax Enterprise easiest to implement while evaluating. The replication is on par or better than others in practice. We are evaluating Astra in our test environment and that has additional benefits we are looking forward to using.
