ScyllaDB CQL Drivers¶

ScyllaDB Drivers¶

We recommend using ScyllaDB drivers. All ScyllaDB drivers are shard-aware and provide additional benefits over third-party drivers.

ScyllaDB supports the CQL binary protocol version 3, so any Apache Cassandra/CQL driver that implements the same version works with Scylla.

The following table lists the available ScyllaDB drivers, specifying which support ScyllaDB Cloud Serversless or include a library for CDC.
