Sigh... :-)

Considering the subject line (and some minor details like starting it with =
a small letter, no narrative in the actual post, etc.) I'm 99% sure this qu=
estion is a more or less intended trolling about performance. ScyllaDB supp=
osedly offers a jaw-dropping performance and is an impressive engineering a=
chievement in other ways, too. And was implemented in C++. Please see the f=
irst paragraph of the linked page.

Thus, my bet is that the full expanded question is: "is it possible to impl=
ement a comparable product in Ada"?

The answer is: we don't know until someone does it.
