Legacy mainframe systems have long been the backbone of critical finance, healthcare, and government operations. However, as technology evolves, these aging systems often become costly to maintain, challenging to integrate with modern applications, and inefficient in meeting today’s digital demands. Migrating mainframe databases and applications to modern platforms is increasingly seen as a strategic imperative, offering enhanced scalability, flexibility, and cost savings.

With CockroachDB release 24.3 we are introducing write-ahead log (WAL) failover, a solution for transient disk stalls commonly seen in cloud storage. During a disk stall, the underlying storage is not available, adding application latency. While we can’t prevent disk stalls, WAL failover helps minimize their impact on CockroachDB instances.
