Making queries¶

This driver supports all query types available in Scylla:

• Simple queries

  • Easy to use

  • Poor performance

  • Primitive load balancing

• Prepared queries

  • Need to be prepared before use

  • Fast

  • Properly load balanced

• Batch statements

  • Run multiple queries at once

  • Can be prepared for better performance and load balancing

• Paged queries

  • Allows to read result in multiple pages when it doesn’t fit in a single response

  • Can be prepared for better performance and load balancing

Additionally there is special functionality to enable USE KEYSPACE queries: USE keyspace

Queries are fully asynchronous - you can run as many of them in parallel as you wish.
