There are 5 services, that register their RPC handlers in messaging
service, but quite a few of them unregister them on stop.
Unregistering is somewhat critical, not just because it makes the
code look clean, but also because unregistration does wait for the
message processing to complete, thus avoiding use-after-free's in
the handlers.
In particular, several handlers call service::get_schema_for_write()
which, in turn, may end up in service::maybe_sync() calling for
the local migration manager instance. All those handlers' processing
must be waited for before stopping the migration manager.
The set brings the RPC handlers unregistration in sync with the
registration part.

Scylla
Quick-start
To get the build going quickly, Scylla offers a frozen toolchain which would build and run Scylla using a pre-configured Docker image. Using the frozen toolchain will also isolate all of the installed dependencies in a Docker container. Assuming you have met the toolchain prerequisites, which is running Docker in user mode, building and running is as easy as:
$ ./tools/toolchain/dbuild ./configure.py
$ ./tools/toolchain/dbuild ninja build/release/scylla
$ ./tools/toolchain/dbuild ./build/release/scylla --developer-mode 1
Please see HACKING.md for detailed information on building and developing Scylla.
Note: GCC >= 8.1.1 is required to compile Scylla.
Running Scylla
- Run Scylla
./build/release/scylla
- run Scylla with one CPU and ./tmp as work directory
./build/release/scylla --workdir tmp --smp 1
- For more run options:
./build/release/scylla --help
Testing
See test.py manual.
Scylla APIs and compatibility
By default, Scylla is compatible with Apache Cassandra and its APIs - CQL and Thrift. There is also experimental support for the API of Amazon DynamoDB, but being experimental it needs to be explicitly enabled to be used. For more information on how to enable the experimental DynamoDB compatibility in Scylla, and the current limitations of this feature, see Alternator and Getting started with Alternator.
Documentation
Documentation can be found in ./docs and on the wiki. There is currently no clear definition of what goes where, so when looking for something be sure to check both. Seastar documentation can be found here. User documentation can be found here.
Training
Training material and online courses can be found at Scylla University. The courses are free, self-paced and include hands-on examples. They cover a variety of topics including Scylla data modeling, administration, architecture, basic NoSQL concepts, using drivers for application development, Scylla setup, failover, compactions, multi-datacenters and how Scylla integrates with third-party applications.
Building Fedora-based Docker image
Build a Docker image with:
cd dist/docker
docker build -t <image-name> .
Run the image with:
docker run -p $(hostname -i):9042:9042 -i -t <image name>
