Training: Building an Online Learning Center for a NoSQL Database
summary
A free, self‑paced training site called ScyllaDB University is built with a WordPress/LearnDash LMS, short videos, quizzes and browser‑hosted hands‑on labs that launch virtual machines for CLI practice; migration case studies claim a 5x throughput improvement with fewer nodes and a demo runs 1.1 million ops/sec at sub‑millisecond latency; metrics show the site becomes the company’s top lead source, but the team is rethinking the LMS and instrumentation to get better engagement and analytics.
