It's a great point- I've been looking into this path myself: ScyllaDB + logic inside app.

The main issue I've run into is deployment. It's just very rough compared to CockroachDB or Postgres, which are single binary or very close to it.

If ScyllaDB became as easy to set up as CockroachDB (or close-ish), they'd have a lot more users, I think.

You can make Postgres setup this easy: https://gist.github.com/gnat/cfe3754c3dc817c7fb8b2225ef4db62...

CockroachDB, also dead easy: https://www.cockroachlabs.com/docs/v22.2/start-a-local-clust...

ScyllaDB is an enormous mess of daemons and ports: https://university.scylladb.com/courses/scylla-operations/le...
