In business, they say it takes ten years to become an overnight success. In technology, they say it takes ten years to build a file system. ScyllaDB is in the technology business, offering a distributed NoSQL database that is monstrously fast and scalable. It turns out that it also takes ten years or more to build a successful database.
This is something that Felipe Mendes and Guilherme Nogueira know well. Mendes and Nogueira are Technical Directors at ScyllaDB, working directly on the product as well as consulting clients. Recently, they presented some of the things they've been working on at ScyllaDB's Monster Scale Summit, and they shared their insights in an exclusive fireside chat.

Orchestrate all the Things
Connecting the dots with George Anadiotis: Analyst, Consultant, Engineer, Founder, Host, Researcher, and Writer.
Stories about Tech, Data, AI and Media, and how they flow into each other shaping our lives.
I’ve engaged from the likes of Gary Marcus and Andrew Ng to emerging thinkers and innovators across multiple domains.
My stories have been featured on ZDNet and VentureBeat, and are syndicated across DZone, Hackernoon, Medium and Substack.
Some might call this futurism; let’s just say it’s connecting the dots
Many conversations have a technical focus. Most also examine business perspectives and use cases, while others are socio-technical.
Some are analyses on emerging themes – picking them up early, featuring expert comment, or offering alternative takes.
Others cover breaking news, typically also featuring the people behind them plus some analysis. There are some book reviews as well.
I focus on the connection between data, analytics, data science, graphs, machine learning and AI and their impact on society and business.
I have been covering topics related to:
- AI and Machine Learning
- Data, Analytics and Data Science
- Knowledge Graphs, Graph Databases, Graph AI & Data Science
- Innovation, and a wide array of technologies such as Blockchain, Cloud, Observability, IoT, Open Data and Open Source, Social Media and Software Engineering.
