Case Study: Veramine achieves reliable, low-latency on-premises cybersecurity analytics with ScyllaDB

Veramine Turns to Scylla to Leverage Big Data for Enterprise Cybersecurity

Veramine provides reactive intrusion response and proactive threat detection by centralizing massive endpoint telemetry and running advanced rule‑based and ML analytics. The company needed an on‑premises, low‑latency big data store for highly sensitive enterprise data but found Postgres too limited and Cassandra unstable (weekly crashes and heavy operational overhead). Veramine turned to vendor ScyllaDB for a Cassandra‑compatible, low‑latency NoSQL database to meet those requirements.

ScyllaDB was deployed as a drop‑in replacement for Cassandra, enabling a quick migration with minimal code changes. The result: stable clusters that no longer suffer the frequent crashes Veramine experienced, significantly reduced administrative overhead, smaller production cluster footprints, and improved developer productivity so the team can focus on detection logic rather than datastore firefighting. Veramine reports much better performance and reliability with ScyllaDB, enabling continued expansion of their enterprise telemetry platform.
