2024: Resilience, AI, Distributed SQL, and Momentum

As we head into the new year, it’s the perfect time to look back on what was a big year for Cockroach Labs. 2024 has been memorable for us, in so many ways. Our company grew to over 500 employees; we moved both our Bangalore and Austin offices to larger spaces to accommodate our growth; we took our annual customer conference, RoachFest, global for the first time. We also celebrated the 50th episode of our podcast, Big Ideas in App Architecture, which has featured tech leaders from Cameo, Estée Lauder, DoorDash, Confluent, and more.
